Product Information

Incorporating investigative journalism and drawing on interviews with participants and leaders, Sandy Smith-Nonini examines the contested place of health and development in El Salvador over the last two decades. Healing the Body Politic recounts the dramatic story of radical health activism from its origins in liberation theology and guerrilla medicine during the third-world country's twelve-year civil war, through development of a remarkable "popular health system," administered by lay providers in a former war zone controlled by leftist rebels. This ethnography casts light on the conflicts between the conservative Ministry of Health and primary health advocates during the 1990s peace process--a time when the government sought to dismantle the effective peasant-run rural system. It offers a rare analysis of the White Marches of 2002û2003, when radicalized physicians rose to national leadership in a successful campaign against privatization of the social security health system. Healing the Body Politic contributes to the productive integration of medical and political anthropology by bringing the semiotics of health and the body to bear on cultural understandings of warfare, the state, and globalization.

Reviews
Smith-Nonini's book beautifully demonstrates the political and social struggle to control the symbolic power of healing, and the consequences of these struggles on the health of rural and poor Salvadorans through the past three decades., Healing the Body Politic is an impressive and well-argued work of ethnography. Sandy Smith-Nonini has written an interesting and precise book spiced with engaging stories that implant images in readers' minds that will likely persist long after they have put the work down., "Sandy Smith-Nonini provides a sweeping tour de force on how popular community-based health care can present a model of social medicine that heals and cures individual bodies and body politics alike." James Quesada professor of anthropology, San Francisco State University, Healing the Body Politic is a refreshing read when so much of contemporary anthropology is concerned with critiquing the cultures of expertise in international development institutions and casting doubt on the project of trying to improve health and well-being. Smith-Nonini's work is instead optimistic; she sees the popular health system as an instantiation of hope., Healing the Body Politic is an impressive and well-argued work of ethnography. Sandy Smith-Nonini has written an interesting and precise book spiced with engaging stories that implant images in readers'' minds that will likely persist long after they have put the work down., "Healing the Body Politicis an impressive and well-argued work of ethnography. Sandy Smith-Nonini has written an interesting and precise book spiced with engaging stories that implant images in readers’ minds that will likely persist long after they have put the work down." Leigh Binford, author ofThe El Mozote Massacre: Anthropology and Human Rights, "Healing the Body Politic is an impressive and well-argued work of ethnography. Sandy Smith-Nonini has written an interesting and precise book spiced with engaging stories that implant images in readers' minds that will likely persist long after they have put the work down." Leigh Binford, author of The El Mozote Massacre: Anthropology and Human Rights, This is an exceptionallywell-researched book, and Smith-Nonini is a talented writer. Healing the Body Politic will be of great interest to medical and psychological anthropologists as well as to cultural and social anthropologists, political scientists, historians, sociologists, and scholars in and of Latin America more generally., "Healing the Body Politicis an impressive and well-argued work of ethnography.

Good price and fast shipping. Only gripe is the stickers they stick on the side of the books. They are not peelable stickers so they can do some slight damage when pulled off. So taking a star away because of that.
