Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Tyler Phan April 2017 2 Abstract This thesis explores the power structures which shape Chinese medicine in the United States. Chinese medicine had two incarnations: migrant Chinese practice and its professionalized form. From the 1880s to the 1940s, Chinese medicine was practiced by the Chinese diaspora to serve their communities and non-Chinese settler populations. From the 1970s onward, Chinese medicine professionalized under the agency of acupuncture. Through the regulation of acupuncture, groups of predominately white Americans began to create standards of practice based on the enactment of what I have referred to as “orientalized biopower.” Orientalized biopower is the process where America’s predominately white counterculture began to encompass an orientalism which romanticized a form of Chinese medicine constructed in the 1950s by the People’s Republic of China called Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). With the adoption of TCM in the United States, they also formulated measures which marginalized Asian Americans practitioners. The profession then labelled itself as “Oriental Medicine” embodying Edward Said’s concept of Orientalism. Along with this form of orientalism, the counterculture used the State to push for a standardized epistemology of TCM. In return, the State encompassed standardized Chinese medicine as element of biopower. My research is informed by a cross-country ethnography of schools, regulatory bodies, and private practices around North America. Through my investigation, I discover the power structures of Chinese medicine, contained within the regulatory bodies and schools, are mostly dominated by white Americans. Combined, they construct a profession and determine the “legitimate” and “illegitimate” forms of Chinese medicine, which constitutes the criteria for who can and cannot practice legally in the country. 3 Table of Content Abstract 3 Table of Content 4 List of Illustrations 6 Acknowledgments 8 Chapter 1 Introduction 9 1.1 Method of Application 10 1.1.1 Position of Research 10 1.1.2 Chinese Medicine 14 1.2 Contributions to the Field 17 1.3 Limits of Research 20 1.4 Outline of Chapters 26 Chapter 2 Historical Context 29 2.1 Orientation of Orientalism 29 2.2 Patrician Orientalism: Chinoiserie and Acupuncture 31 2.3 Migration and Medicine 34 2.4 Commercial Orientalism 37 2.5 Pacific Coast 40 2.5.1 San Francisco and Oakland, California 41 2.5.2 Los Angeles, California 45 2.6 Rural Encampments 47 2.6.1 Fiddletown, California 48 2.6.2 John Day, Oregon 48 2.6.3 Boise, Idaho 49 2.7 Political Orientalism: Labor, Racism, and Chinese Exclusion 51 2.8 “Regular” and “Irregular” Medicine 62 2.9 Chinese Medicine’s Persecution 71 2.10 Conclusion 75 Chapter 3 Orientalized Biopower 77 3.1 The Construction of American Chinese Medicine 77 3.2 “In the Right Place at the Right Time” or Opportunism? 81 3.2.1 The Spread of the UCLA Cohort 84 3.3 Orientalized Biopower 87 3.3.1 Counterculture Orientalism 92 3.3.2 Biopower 105 3.4 Chinese Medicine as Cultural Appropriation? 113 3.5 Conclusion 117 4 Chapter 4 Professionalization 119 4.1 Chinese Medicine as a Profession 119 4.2 History of National Regulatory Bodies 121 4.3 NCCAOM 129 4.4 ACAOM 133 4.5 CCAOM 143 4.6 California 146 4.7 Nevada 153 4.8 Maryland 157 4.9 Conclusion 159 Chapter 5 Traditions 163 5.1 Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) 163 5.1.1 Herbs 182 5.1.2 Acupuncture 185 5.2 J.R.

My wife and son inspire me to create a better world for future generations. I also want to thank my supervisor Joseph Calabrese and Vivienne Lo for their comments and insight to help me navigate the thesis. The editing of Phoebe Adams has gone above and beyond what anyone could ask for. Thanks is due to my friend Chuck Marcus, whose sleuthing shed light on California’s unique legal history of acupuncture. The ethnography could have not been possible without the houses and guest beds of our family and friends. 8 Chapter 1. Introduction This thesis focuses on the power structures which shape Chinese medicine in the United States. It begins with my own experience as an acupuncturist when I realized the insertion of hair-thin needles into someone for therapeutic value involves multiple systems of control. The mechanism of this system led me on a four-year journey through a compulsory education, followed by a year preparation for a national board examination, and thousands of dollars in debt. Once finished, I found myself in a world my school did not prepare me for, small business ownership. In hindsight, the vast majority of my educational experience did not relate to the safety of the patients, as often boasted by state1 licensures and regulatory bodies. I was expected to memorize and reiterate abstract medical theory based on orientalist assumptions and translations of Chinese ideas such as qi or shen. The frustration I and many others encountered was the inability to relate the information from the national boards examination to live patients. Years later, this disconnect resurfaced in academia as an anthropologist. Viewed through the lens of the social sciences, many of what my Chinese medicine friends and colleagues deemed as “political,” were issues concerning culture, society, technology, and economics. The tedious process I experienced as a young adult led me to interrogate the process anthropologically and examine the cultural and historical significance of the medicine. As an alternative system of care, Chinese medicine has always been positioned as a healing modality different from the conventions of allopathic biomedicine.2 Through self-reflection and critical analysis of what would 1 Capitalized “State” refers to as the organized political community living under a single system of government or used in “United States.” It can be synonymous used as “government.” Lowercase “state” or in the rare case “State of…” refers to the constituent political entity of the United States.

This transformation occurred in the aftermath of the report, which embraced scientific knowledge and its advancement as the defining ethos of a modern physician.

Lynda Anne Moy From Yellow Peril to Model Minority: Deconstruction of the Model Minority Myth and Implications for the Invisibility of Asian American Mental Health Needs ABSTRACT The model minority myth is a racial stereotype imposed upon Asian Americans, often depicting them as a successful and high-achieving monolithic group in the United States. This paper examines sociopolitical functions of the term “model minority” and implications for this broad and diverse racial group by reviewing existing literature and conducting an analysis of qualitative interviews with 12 Asian Americans. The findings of this study suggest that while the model minority myth appears to be a positive stereotype, it may lead Asian Americans to experience distress through (a.) a sense of confinement, (b.) treatment as foreigners, and (c.) erasure and invisibility of challenges around identity, racism and discrimination, immigrant and refugee experiences, mental health, and accessing culturally sensitive resources.

Explain the human energy field (HEF). 4. Describe the seven auric layers. 5. Describe the seven chakras. 6. Define the concept of energy healing. 7. Describe various types of energy healing. INTRODUCTION For centuries, traditional healers worldwide have practiced methods of energy healing, viewing the body as a complex energy system with energy flowing through or over its surface (Rakel, 2007). Until recently, the Western world largely ignored the Eastern interpretation of humans as energy beings. However, times have changed dramatically and an exciting and promising new branch of academic inquiry and clinical research is opening in the area of energy healing (Oschman, 2000; Trivieri & Anderson, 2002). Scientists and energy therapists around the world have made discoveries that will forever alter our picture of human energetics. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is conducting research in areas such as energy healing and prayer, and major U.S. academic institutions are conducting large clinical trials in these areas. Approaches in exploring the concepts of life force and healing energy that previously appeared to compete or conflict have now been found to support each other.

    Medical School Expansion in the 21st Century Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine Michael E. Whitcomb, M.D. and Douglas L. Wood, D.O., Ph.D. September 2015 Cover: University of New England campus Medical School Expansion in the 21st Century Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine Michael E. Whitcomb, M.D. and Douglas L. Wood, D.O., Ph.D. FOREWORD The Macy Foundation has recently documented the motivating factors, major challenges, and planning strategies for the fifteen new allopathic medical schools (leading to the M.D. degree) that enrolled their charter classes between 2009 and 2014.1,2 A parallel trend in the opening of new osteopathic medical schools (leading to the D.O. degree) began in 2003. This expansion will result in a greater proportional increase in the D.O. workforce than will occur in the M.D. workforce as a result of the allopathic expansion. With eleven new osteopathic schools and nine new sites or branches for existing osteopathic schools, there will be more than a doubling of the D.O. graduates in the U.S. by the end of this decade. Douglas Wood, D.O., Ph.D., and Michael Whitcomb, M.D., bring their broad experiences in D.O. and M.D. education to this report of the osteopathic school expansion. They identify ways in which the new schools are similar to and different from the existing osteopathic schools, and they identify differences in the rationale and characteristics of the new osteopathic schools, compared with those of the new allopathic schools that Dr. Whitcomb has previously chronicled. 1 Whitcomb ME.

  • Mr. Bai and Mr. Qian Earntheir Living: Considering Two Handwritten Notebooks of Matching Couplets from China in the Late Qing An
    chapter 7 Mr. Bai and Mr. Qian Earn Their Living: Considering Two Handwritten Notebooks of Matching Couplets from China in the Late Qing and Early Republic 老白老錢寫對聯兒 Introduction This chapter explores two chaoben that I bought in China in the spring of 2012. They were written between the end of the Qing dynasty, around 1880, and the early years of the Republic, about 1913. They were both written by literate men whose daily life was very close to the common people in terms of their life expectations and their modest incomes. The men, who had received some formal education and had the ability to read and to write, took advantage of those abilities to earn income by preparing couplets of congratulatory poems that were, and still are, a big part of the social and celebratory life of the Chinese. By attempting to draw inferences and make logical assumptions from the information in these two chaoben and the manner in which the information was presented, I suggest the ways in which they can reveal something about the lives, the worldview, and the economic standing of both men. By looking carefully at the contents of what they wrote, we see that these chaoben can also be used to reconstruct something about the communities in which both men lived and worked. The bulk of the content in both chaoben is matching couplets. Many literate men in this period could regularly earn extra income by offering to write matching couplets, celebratory rhyming phrases that were demanded on many social occasions, such as New Year festivities and weddings.
