  • The Use of Traditional Health Care Among the Mapuche in Chile: Behavior and Perception
    The use of traditional health care among the Mapuche in Chile: Behavior and Perception. By Alethea Kraster :: for Mapuche Stichting | FOLIL http://www.mapuche.nl/ july 2003 Introduction In Chile two mains forms of health care are being used by both Chileans and indigenous people, the traditional and western health care system. The traditional health system can be described as a local health system where concepts like holism and integration play an important role, which have always been present in indigenous societies (PAHO, 1997). Traditional medicine constitutes a body of knowledge that explains the etiology and procedures of diagnosis, prognosis, treatment and prevention of disease. This knowledge is transmitted verbally, from generation to generation, within the indigenous lineage, as is common in traditional cultures. Patients and healers are said to be inextricably tied to this health care system. Traditional health care is mostly based on people’s beliefs and patterns of behavior and diseases are ascribed to personal or magical, natural, or supernatural causes. Mapuche said that equilibrium and harmony of the spiritual and natural world are the most important concepts in traditional health care. Western health care lacks this equilibrium, since it concentrates mostly on bodily problems. This article was written out interest how and if traditional healthcare is being used among the Mapuches. The article focuses on behavior and perception of Mapuches towards traditional health care. Since traditional and western forms of health care usually are being practiced separately, it is especially interesting to mention that a Makewe hospital in the IX region is the only one caring about intercultural health care, this means: paying attention to the Mapuche’s concept of health care.

There are many people who claim to be experts on vampire lore and legend who will say that they know all about Vlad Tepes and Count Dracula or that they can name several different types of vampiric species. I can do that, too, but that is not how I came to be a known vam- pirologist. Knowing the “who, what and where” is one thing, but knowing and more impor- tantly understanding the “why” is another.

All work is entirely my own, and it has not been submitted for any other degree or professional qualification, unless otherwise specified. Signature Date: 2 Abstract Based upon thirteen months of ethnographic fieldwork among indigenous Mapuche people of southern Chile, this thesis explores two relational oppositions which are central concerns of both Mapuche people and the discipline of anthropology. The first opposition explored is that between self and other, focusing on how it is conceived differently from different positions within rural Mapuche life. Through this exploration, I emphasise an understanding of otherness as a relational category, which is more connected to ascertaining and describing what the self is not, rather than to the depiction of an embodied alterity.
