dc.description.abstract | Based on reports from the World Health Organization, this ethnography concerns the concept of tradition/traditional as a quality of contemporary medicine. The discussion focuses on how this term has been mobilized within the context of global health and, not least, on its effects while being instituted as a therapeutic category. From a medical anthropology approach, I track the mobilization of this concept from the 1960s to current reports, through the Organization’s headquarters to its regional branches. I intend to highlight the shifts in its conceptualization, specifically, how the term has reshaped the identity and legitimacy of medicine and medication. | pt_PT |
