Exploring the relationship between \"the streets\" and Medicaid-funded institutions, this essay asks: How does the relationship between \"the streets\"-and in the words of my research interlocutors-\"life on the other side\" shape life in Medicaid-funded institutions in the Northeast US city? How do the social and symbolic conditions of this relationship-conditions structured by anti-Blackness-formulate the human in urban poverty? By joining Medicaid-funded institutions together as a broader health-governing network, I demonstrate how these institutions become boundary spaces that reveal the socially and symbolically interdependent worlds of \"the streets\" and life off them.

I trace this striving through the unmaking and remaking of local relations of care amidst encroachment by post-Second World War Nordic welfare states and regimes of environmental stewardship. I propose a dual conceptualization of ecosocial injury and resurgent care to account for, on the one hand, care's alienation from its social and ecological contexts; and, on the other, the intimate everyday labor of revivifying relations of kinship and belonging, and conditions of material livability, within local ecologies. This defiant and desirous politics of care carves out an opening to attend ethnographically and theoretically to both dislocation and repair in spaces of Indigenous resurgence.

Drawing on more than 1-year of ethnographic research and interviews in Indonesia, we show that instances of moral self-reflection occurring in the process of acquiring and appropriating clinical insight emerge at the intersection of heterogeneous discursive regimes. When biomedical notions of health and illness dominate these discourses, they reimagine pre-existing notions about spirituality and religion. Furthermore, consenting to psychiatric notions of health and illness can create common ground and a sense of shared experience, leading to grassroots movements for the empowerment of the mentally ill, self-help groups, and other support structures. At the same time, these processes can increase uncertainty and be generative of a culture of blame, as individuals are caught in overlapping and at times contradictory moral systems that each have the potential to strip patients of their moral status.</p>","PeriodicalId":47649,"journal":{"name":"Medical Anthropology Quarterly","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142865557","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given the historical failure of most eradication programs over the last century, such teleological imaginings of disease-free futures might seem overly utopian. But even if it were possible to eradicate such diseases in their entirety, would this be universally welcomed, even by those most affected by them? In this article, I compare the narratives of national and international bodies concerned with eliminating leprosy, in particular, with the more ambivalent narratives of those affected by the disease in India, the country where the disease is most prevalent. For the latter, the promise of elimination not only seems unrealistic, but represents a potential loss of identity.

In Gujarat state, public health campaigns against the practice rely on narratives exhibiting the hallmarks of melodrama: good-evil binaries, stock characters, emotional provocations, simplistic diagnoses, and inevitable triumphs. As biopolitical truths, such narratives resonate ethically and emotionally for people. By individualizing blame, obscuring structure, circumscribing discourse, and legitimizing authority, such narratives also exert many classic biopolitical effects. But they do not necessarily transform subjectivity or behavior, as biopower is often assumed to. Anti-sex selection messaging illustrates how moralistic, sentimentalized interventions against potentially harmful practices can provoke strong responses without changing actions.

These cases raise dilemmas for professionals in assisted reproduction and, more intensely, create challenges for individuals whose embryos are identified as mosaic. This article examines the experiences of a woman who decides to implant a mosaic embryo, focusing on her strategies for managing technical uncertainties and evaluating the embryo's potential.

Building on anthropological interest in the relationality of care, this article explores how women compel the care of others, especially under conditions of healthcare scarcity and in contexts outside clinical settings.
