摘要

实践理论为揭示、理解痴呆症照护者的日常思想和行为并赋予其价值提供了可能。通过对南非农村地区痴呆症日常护理实践的人种学研究数据，我们强调了平凡的实践--尤其是 "坐等"--对于优化在家接受护理的痴呆症患者的福祉具有深远的意义。我们提请大家注意居家（非正式）护理的结构性驱动因素，而国家的不作为则是这种结构性驱动因素的基础。这使得 "坐等 "既是一种护理行为，也是一种结构性无能的体现形式。

Sitting in Wait: Everyday Caregiving Practices for People with Dementia in Rural South Africa.

Practice theories offer potential to reveal, understand, and attribute value to the everyday thoughts and actions of dementia caregivers. Drawing on ethnographic data from research in rural South Africa, on everyday dementia care practices, we highlight the profound importance of mundane practices - especially "sitting in wait" - for optimizing wellbeing of people with dementia who are cared for at home. We draw attention to the structural drivers of homebased (informal) care, which is underpinned by state inaction. This situates the act of sitting in wait as both an act of care and an embodied form of structural powerlessness.

期刊介绍： Medical Anthropology provides a global forum for scholarly articles on the social patterns of ill-health and disease transmission, and experiences of and knowledge about health, illness and wellbeing. These include the nature, organization and movement of peoples, technologies and treatments, and how inequalities pattern access to these. Articles published in the journal showcase the theoretical sophistication, methodological soundness and ethnographic richness of contemporary medical anthropology. Through the publication of empirical articles and editorials, we encourage our authors and readers to engage critically with the key debates of our time. Medical Anthropology invites manuscripts on a wide range of topics, reflecting the diversity and the expanding interests and concerns of researchers in the field.
