Cette nouvelle collection aborde avec une approche d’anthropologie critique les fondements des politiques internationales de santé publique. Du fait des inégalités sociales prévalentes, les politiques de santé, qui affichent un objectif de protection de la santé des populations, créent souvent une menace pour la santé des populations vulnérables, telles que les minorités ethniques ou les pauvres. Cet ouvrage s’intéresse à l’anthropologie des politiques de santé, du processus de prise de décision, de l’inscription sociale des décideurs et des influences auxquelles les décisions sont soumises, à l’impact de ces politiques sur les vies. Cet ouvrage propose une perspective critique qui sera utile aux spécialistes de l’anthropologie et la sociologie médicale, la santé publique, et du droit des minorités.Sommaire :Pearls of the Antilles?
