摘要

如今，在坦桑尼亚的农村地区，护士会指导孕妇早在预产期之前就去产妇等待之家（MWH），这是一种监视式护理场所。民族志曾被设想为全球安全孕产政策中的风险场所，但它显示了孕产妇保健中心如何成为孕妇和护士的风险场所。MWH的谈判表明，监视式护理可以用来控制和加强等级制度——在不经意间产生风险——但也以令人惊讶的方式，通过坚持其他形式的护理来减轻风险。监视-关怀既是一种治理工具，也是一种评估和带来亲缘关系和关怀的手段。

Waiting in a Place of Impossible Demands: Surveillance-Care in a Tanzanian Maternity Waiting Home.

Today in rural Tanzania, nurses instruct pregnant women to go to maternity waiting homes (MWH), spaces of surveillance-care, long before due dates. Envisioned as a place for risk in policies of global safe motherhood, ethnography shows how the MWH becomes a place of risk to pregnant women and nurses. Negotiations at the MWH show how surveillance-care can be used to control and reinforce hierarchies - inadvertently creating risk - but also, in surprising ways, mitigate risk by insisting on other forms of care. Surveillance-care is both a tool of governance and a means to assess and bring about kinship and care.

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.
