It provides a more integrated approach that places the subaltern subject and subaltern therapy in an ongoing and historical relationship with state-sanctioned and elite forms of medical practice. Focusing on those who exist and practice in the shadow of statist medicine, examining how they operate, and how they experience being in this position, it offers a means to understand how subaltern practice has evolved and changed over time, and how it has related in ever-changing ways to other forms of medicine and healing. The result shows that there is considerable fluidity in this, so that a type of practice may be elite in one context, subaltern in another. Contributors examine statist medicine from a critical perspective, the forms that subaltern therapy assumes, and their logics, as well as the problem of transition, one of the central concerns of subaltern historiography. Finally, other forms of diverse therapeutic practice are discussed, which continue to enjoy mass popular support in South Asia to this day. Addresses an area of research that is expanding rapidly among anthropologists and historians today and including contributions by some of the leading figures in South Asian history, this book is a path-breaking contribution to the study of medicine and society, history and South Asian Studies"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Alternative medicine $z India. 650 0 $a Health services accessibility $z India. 650 0 $a Traditional medicine $z India. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008112956 650 12 $a Complementary Therapies. $2 [MeSH] $0 https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D000529 650 22 $a Health Services Accessibility. $2 [MeSH] $0 https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D006297 650 22 $a Medicine, Traditional. $2 [MeSH] $0 https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D008519 650 22 $a Socioeconomic Factors. $2 [MeSH] $0 https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D012959 651 2 $a India. 650 7 $a Alternative medicine. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00806153 650 7 $a Health services accessibility. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00953278 650 7 $a Traditional medicine. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01153974 651 7 $a India. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210276 700 1 $a Hardiman, David. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n82046662 700 1 $a Mukharji, Projit Bihari. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2009036088 830 0 $a Intersections (London, England) ; $v 6. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2010006345 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180201030637.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3AA10EAC071E11E88A431B0A97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
