Mixing Medicines

Ecologies of Care in Buddhist Siberia

Beschreibung

Mixing Medicines is an ethnography of Russian medicine's attempts to recuperate indigenous therapeutic traditions associated with the state's ethnic and religious minorities. Based in Buryatia, a traditionally Buddhist region in southeastern Siberia, the book traces the uneven terrains of encounter between indigenous healing, the state, and transnational medical flows.
