Please read this course outline through very carefully as it provides essential information needed by all students attending this course. Aims This course provides a critical overview of contemporary theoretical issues in medical anthropology and examines the, at times, awkward relationship between anthropology and medicine. Drawing extensively upon recent ethnographies from different parts of the world in order to contextualize theoretical approaches, the course examines key debates and relates these debates to wider issues of theory and method in social anthropology. Teaching and Learning Methods The weekly sessions consist of a lecture plus group work to analyze some key texts (indicated in this outline by *) that are available in e-journals or contained in the course readings available on Blackboard. There will also be opportunities for clarification of the material presented in the lectures. Questions regarding the key texts will be available on Blackboard. Readings You are encouraged to read as much as possible. The more you read, the more you will get out of the course and, I hope, the more you will enjoy it! You should aim at least to have read the key readings prior to the relevant lecture. In view of student numbers, some key texts have been put in high demand in the main university library. In the list that follows you will find a considerable number of recent articles that can be readily accessed in e-journals, just a few of the plethora of journal articles in the field of medical anthropology. I strongly encourage you to do independent research on topics of particular interest. Why not browse through recent issues of journals such as Anthropology and Medicine, Medical Anthropology, Medical Anthropology Quarterly, Social Science and Medicine, Culture, Medicine and Psychiatry, Somatosphere? Assessment As you will see above, the assessment for undergraduates is one final three-hour exam (three questions to be answered). The assessment for postgraduates is one 4000 word essay from a topic list that covers the material in the course. All undergraduate students will have the opportunity to submit a maximum of two practice essays (no longer than 1000 words each) during the semester and will receive feedback on these essays. All postgraduate students will have the opportunity to receive feedback on their final essay plan. General recommended texts: Manderson, L, E. Cartwright and A.

Each department has its own character and the School seeks to retain this whilst building on our interdisciplinary strengths. The Global Development Institute (GDI) is a culmination of an impressive history of development studies at The University of Manchester which has spanned more than 60 years and unites the strengths of the Institute for Development and Policy Management (IDPM) and the Brooks World Poverty Institute. IDPM was established in 1958 and became the UK’s largest University-based International Development Studies centre, with over thirty Manchester-based academic and associated staff. Its objective is to promote social and economic development, particularly within lower-income countries and for disadvantaged groups, by enhancing the capabilities of individuals and organisations through education, training, consultancy, research and policy analysis. To build on this tradition, the University created in SEED the Brooks World Poverty Institute, a multidisciplinary centre of excellence researching poverty, poverty reduction, inequality and growth.

  • Interview with David Macdougall. Looking for Others
    Visual Anthropologist and filmmaker, MIHAI ANDREI LEAHA Center for Vision and Anthropological Education, Romania. INTERVIEW WITH DAVID MACDOUGALL. LOOKING FOR OTHERS INTRODUCTION David MacDougall is arguably the most prominent figure in the field of visual anthropology today. He is a well-known filmmaker, anthropologist and writer that contributed to the development of visual anthro- pology, regarded not only as a subdomain of anthro- pology, but as a field of study in itself, that does not depend anymore on the traditional scientific princi- ple of anthropological inquiry for its validity. 308 São Paulo, v. 2, n.1, p.307-316, may (2017) In 2011 MacDougall came to the Astra Film Festival in Sibiu, Romania and then to Cluj as a guest of the Babes-Bolyai Univesity of Cluj Napoca, Ro- mania. As I was writing my PhD dissertation on ethnographic film and anthropological knowledge, I took the opportunity to talk with one of my favourite authors and filmmakers about the topics that interested me at that time. Starting from conflictual definitions of visual anthropology, issues related to observational and intertextual cinema, to differences between written and visual anthropology or how anthropological cin- ema conveys anthropological knowledge, the discussion led to a more methodological, practical and rather personal question about the act of “looking” as a mode of inquiry and a methodological shift towards cor- poreal/sensory anthropology. Looking back, the 45 minutes interview was so inspiring to me that it stood at the basis of every chapter of my PhD thesis and even if some of the issues discussed five years ago are not “burning” anymore, I believe there are ideas that stand at the core of our discipline and many of the issues tackled still deserve our full attention.

  • Australian Aboriginal Oral Traditions

Aboriginal Oral Traditions A History of Research and Scholarship1 The makers of Australian songs, or of the combined songs and dances, are the poets, or bards, of the tribes, and are held in great esteem. Their names are known in the neighboring tribes, and their songs are carried from tribe to tribe, until the very meaning of the words is lost, as well as the original source of the song. It is hard to say how far and how long such a song may travel in the course of time over the Australian continent. (Howitt 1904:414) In 1988 non-Aboriginal Australians will celebrate two hundred years’ occupation of a country which had previously been home to an Aboriginal population of about 300,000 people. They probably spoke more than two hundred different languages and most individuals were multilingual (Dixon 1980). They had a rich culture, whose traditions were centrally concerned with the celebration of three basic types of religious ritual-rites of fertility, initiation, and death (Maddock 1982:105-57). In many parts of Australia, particularly in the south where white settlement was earliest and densest, Aboriginal traditional life has largely disappeared, although the memory of it has been passed down the generations. Nowadays all Aborigines, even in the most traditional parts of the north, such as Arnhem Land, are affected to a greater or lesser extent by the Australian version of Western culture, and must preserve their own traditions by a combination of holding strategies.

It also relies on oral histories of former and company owners and other individuals who formed and grew the earliest interstate reforestation contracting companies, as well as archival research in the records of the South Eastern Forestry Contractors Alliance My work uses liminality as a framework for understanding the lived experiences of these workers, and I have created the term “liminal labor” to describe jobs that require liminality of workers. The Canadian planters experience the job in a manner akin to a traditional rite of passage, a brief experience that defines them ot their community and teaches them skills they will rely on throughout their adult life, but the American and Mexicans planters experience long-term liminality, an extended period that can last decades.
