Medical Anthropology:  Cross-Cultural Studies in Health & Illness

Medical Anthropology is dedicated to publishing papers that situate the relationship between human behavior, social life, and health within an anthropological context. It provides a forum for inquiring into how knowledge, meaning, livelihood, power, and resource distribution are shaped and how, in turn, these phenomena go on to shape patterns of disease, experiences of health and illness, and the organization of treatments. We welcome papers that focus on empirical research as well as those that focus on methodological and theoretical issues. Our goal is to bring to our readership work that both exemplifies and expands upon ways of understanding the biological, cultural, and politico-economic dimensions of illness and healing.
