断断续续地看完这本书的,每次看了几十页就放下,已然飙泪了,怕一口气看完会憋成内伤。看完之后很长一段时间内,都不知道该说这本书写得好,还是不好。因为说它写得好,那是把阅读的愉悦建立在书中每一个人生苦难之上。 一个小姑娘,因为家里穷,姊妹又多,她先是和一个士兵...

Pathologies of Power uses harrowing stories of life--and death--in extreme situations to interrogate our understanding of human rights. Paul Farmer, a physician and anthropologist with twenty years of experience working in Haiti, Peru, and Russia, argues that promoting the social and economic rights of the world's poor is the most important human rights struggle of our times. With passionate eyewitness accounts from the prisons of Russia and the beleaguered villages of Haiti and Chiapas, this book links the lived experiences of individual victims to a broader analysis of structural violence. Farmer challenges conventional thinking within human rights circles and exposes the relationships between political and economic injustice, on one hand, and the suffering and illness of the powerless, on the other. Farmer shows that the same social forces that give rise to epidemic diseases such as HIV and tuberculosis also sculpt risk for human rights violations. He illustrates the ways that racism and gender inequality in the United States are embodied as disease and death. Yet this book is far from a hopeless inventory of abuse. Farmer's disturbing examples are linked to a guarded optimism that new medical and social technologies will develop in tandem with a more informed sense of social justice. Otherwise, he concludes, we will be guilty of managing social inequality rather than addressing structural violence. Farmer's urgent plea to think about human rights in the context of global public health and to consider critical issues of quality and access for the world's poor should be of fundamental concern to a world characterized by the bizarre proximity of surfeit and suffering.
感觉Farmer的introduction理论框架还可以再推进一步
评分四星半。Medical anthropology读到现在,应该只有Nancy Shepherd-Hughes那样的writing才能真的打到五星。Farmer 和 Kleinman 都还差一点点。

评分把neoliberalism这种变幻莫测的概念当成一个靶子攻击实在不够高明,拒绝接受任何折衷主义直接反对医疗私有化也确实是很敢,可惜他professional的身份和知识没有帮他justify任何一项主张,只能说他自己的经历让他比那些养尊处优的傻白甜liberal更有底气说这些话而已吧。
