摘要

Ramah McKay's Medicine in the meantime is a carefully crafted ethnography of medical care in postcolonial and postsocialist Mozambique that makes a significant contribution to critical studies of global health in Africa. The book considers the networks, actors, and materials that contribute to the making of care in the bricolage of humanitarian, developmentalist, public health, and, now, global health interventions that characterize medical services in contemporary Mozambique, and what close attention to these new assemblages can reveal to us about transnational global health projects.
