Prés. de l'éd. : Pouvoir guérir nous amène sur les sentiers d'une intervention humanitaire de Médecins sans frontières (MSF) en Amazonie brésilienne. Le périple nous conduit du bureau opérationnel de la section hollandaise de MSF à Amsterdam, jusqu'aux confins des plus petits villages autochtones des rivières noires amazoniennes, en passant par les centres de coordination des projets brésiliens de MSF à Manaus et de son projet du Médio Solimões. Tout au long du parcours, des savoirs biomédicaux humanitaires côtoient des savoirs thérapeutiques autochtones. C'est là que le pouvoir de guérir s'exerce, forme d'alliage de savoirs, coutumes, croyances, transactions capables de conduire à la guérison. Divers sites d'observation illustrent comment les vérités des savoirs se transforment selon les acteurs, les circuits et les contextes et comment certaines formes de savoir dominent alors que certaines autres résistent, que ce soit au nom de la "santé pour tous", par crainte de biopiraterie, à des fins globales ou par respect pour des valeurs locales. Un regard est posé sur tout ce qui entoure la manipulation des remèdes donnés au malade, qu'ils soient pharmaceutiques ou à base de plantes. Infirmières, médecins humanitaires, autochtones en formation biomédicale, sages-femmes, chamans, herboristes ont la charge d'administrer ces remèdes et suscitent en quelque sorte la continuité entre les savoirs. Ce livre offre une contribution importante à la recherche en anthropologie de la santé et un exemple original d'ethnographie multisite. Il propose aussi une entrée particulière sur le monde des médecines autochtones et humanitaires.

This book re-establishes the relevance of mainstream anthropological (and sociological) approaches to development processes and simultaneously recognizes that contemporary development ought to be anthropology‘s principal area of study. Professor de Sardan argues for a socio-anthropology of change and development that is a deeply empirical, multidimensional, diachronic study of social groups and their interactions. The Introduction provides a thought-provoking examination of the principal new approaches that have emerged in the discipline during the 1990s. Part I then makes clear the complexity of social change and development, and the ways in which socio-anthropology can measure up to the challenge of this complexity. Part II looks more closely at some of the leading variables involved in the development process, including relations of production; the logics of social action; the nature of knowledge; forms of mediation; and ‘political‘ strategies.

In response to the call of the 48th World Health Assembly for a substantial revision of the International Health Regulations, this new edition of the Regulations will enter into force on June 15, 2007. The purpose and scope of the Regulations are "to prevent, protect against, control and provide a public health response to the international spread of disease in ways that are commensurate with and restricted to public health risks, and which avoid unnecessary interference with international traffic and trade." The Regulations also cover certificates applicable to international travel and transport, and requirements for international ports, airports and ground crossings.

This report analyses all aspects of cultural diversity, which has emerged as a key concern of the international community in recent decades, and maps out new approaches to monitoring and shaping the changes that are taking place. It highlights, in particular, the interrelated challenges of cultural diversity and intercultural dialogue and the way in which strong homogenizing forces are matched by persistent diversifying trends. The report proposes a series of ten policy-oriented recommendations, to the attention of States, intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations, international and regional bodies, national institutions and the private sector on how to invest in cultural diversity. Emphasizing the importance of cultural diversity in different areas (languages, education, communication and new media development, and creativity and the marketplace) based on data and examples collected from around the world, the report is also intended for the general public. It proposes a coherent vision of cultural diversity and clarifies how, far from being a threat, it can become beneficial to the action of the international community.

Since September 1997, UNESCO's Analysis and Forecasting Office has been arranging a series of "Twenty-First Century Talks," each of which brings together two or three leading scientists, intellectuals, creators or decision-makers from all parts of the world. The Office also organized the first "Twenty-First Century Dialogues" in September 1998, in which 60 international participants took part in discussions on the general theme of "Will the Twenty-First Century Take Place?" This text represents an anthology of the contributions made to these future-oriented discussions, up to the ninth session of the "Talks" held in June 1999. Topics include population, biotechnologies, pollution, energy, the food supply, culture, pluralism, education, democracy, human rights, women, childhood, work, urban living, globalization, poverty, and human conflicts.

Written by authors who are themselves Deaf, this unique book illuminates the life and culture of Deaf people from the inside, through their everyday talk, their shared myths, their art and performances, and the lessons they teach one another. Carol Padden and Tom Humphries employ the capitalized "Deaf" to refer to deaf people who share a natural language—American Sign Language (ASL—and a complex culture, historically created and actively transmitted across generations. Signed languages have traditionally been considered to be simply sets of gestures rather than natural languages. This mistaken belief, fostered by hearing people’s cultural views, has had tragic consequences for the education of deaf children; generations of children have attended schools in which they were forbidden to use a signed language. For Deaf people, as Padden and Humphries make clear, their signed language is life-giving, and is at the center of a rich cultural heritage. The tension between Deaf people’s views of themselves and the way the hearing world views them finds its way into their stories, which include tales about their origins and the characteristics they consider necessary for their existence and survival. Deaf in America includes folktales, accounts of old home movies, jokes, reminiscences, and translations of signed poems and modern signed performances. The authors introduce new material that has never before been published and also offer translations that capture as closely as possible the richness of the original material in ASL. Deaf in America will be of great interest to those interested in culture and language as well as to Deaf people and those who work with deaf children and Deaf people.

Umhlonyane, also known as Artemisia afra, is one of the oldest and best-documented indigenous medicines in South Africa. This bush, which grows wild throughout the sub-Saharan region, smells and tastes like “medicine,” thus easily making its way into people’s lives and becoming the choice of everyday healing for Xhosa healer-diviners and Rastafarian herbalists. This “natural” remedy has recently sparked curiosity as scientists search for new molecules against a tuberculosis pandemic while hoping to recognize indigenous medicine. Laplante follows umhlonyane on its trails and trials of becoming a biopharmaceutical — from the “open air” to controlled environments — learning from the plant and from the people who use it with hopes in healing.
