Expanded Course Description
| This course examines the history of global health from an inter-disciplinary perspective, drawing on history, epidemiology, medicine, anthropology, and African Studies. What is global health and where did it come from? It is broad in geographical and chronological scope, beginning in the 14th century, though a bulk of our time will be spent from 1880-present. Although examples will come from around the globe, there will be a particular emphasis on sub-Saharan Africa. We will read texts by historians, anthropologists, colonial employees, and public health workers that seek to define and critique the field. Students will learn about the production of new global health knowledge through exposure to the faculty member’s own research-in-progress writings, there will be guest lectures from global health practitioners, and interactions with other UO undergraduates who are involved in global health research.
Applies towards the World area field (Africa/ME by arrangement)
