Abstract:
This thesis presents and analyses the findings of research into the management of diabetes in one urban and one rural district of Cameroon. The phenomenon of noncommunicable diseases like diabetes mellitus is becoming a recurrent problem in middle and low-income countries, notably in Sub-Sahara Africa. This ethnographic study, in the tradition of medical anthropology, involved over two years of fieldwork, and has been undertaken to shed more light on the paradoxes that underpin the interpretation and management of diabetes in Cameroon. Initially, I set out to study how diabetes was managed in

Abstract:
Music therapy has been recognized as a legitimate health practice in Canada since after the Second World War. While research shows the emotional, social and health benefits of music therapy, researchers have failed to agree on the reason music can be beneficial to health. I argue that affect could be the key to understanding the myriad ways in which music, and music therapy, can have a positive effect on health. Through the lens of affect theory, I explore embodiment, relationship-building and aesthetic creation as three areas in which music can allow the harnessing of affect towards health go

For citizens of countries with primarily private healthcare and citizens of countries with socialized healthcare the forces behind seeking international healthcare are economic (cheaper prices) and temporal (long queues), respectively. The foreign nation-state/patient relationship is an integral part in facilitating the medical tourist/hospital relationship and is also a way to discern discrepancies in w

To this end, the author conducted field research with staff at AMREF's Kenya Country Office between June and September, 2012, involving participant observation, field visits, and archival research.

From the perspective of an anthropology of thinking, 'AI' is intriguing because it escapes 'nature' and 'culture' concepts that traditionally ordered relationships between man and the natural worl

Abstract:
The history of the words inherited from Latin and Greek shows how various semantic fields and classes of lexemes have ensured the unity of the Romance languages. Among them are the anatomical terms referring to body parts, organs, and functions. However, a “mysterious” organ (Haque, A. 2006) has had separate and sinuous evolutions and a surprising transformation: the spleen. From the theory of humours to Baudelaire’s poetic spleen, the term has known multiple transfigurations both in the linguistic and the cultural fields and has developed additional meanings over time.
