Beyond Reductionism: Bioethnicity and the Genetics of Inequality --Epilogue --Glossary --Notes --Bibliography --IndexThis innovative ethnographic study animates the racial politics that underlie genomic research into type 2 diabetes, one of the most widespread chronic diseases and one that affects ethnic groups disproportionately. Michael J. Montoya follows blood donations from "Mexican-American" donors to laboratories that are searching out genetic contributions to diabetes. His analysis lays bare the politics and ethics of the research process, addressing the implicit contradiction of undertaking genetic research that reinscribes race's importance even as it is being demonstrated to have little scientific validity. In placing DNA sampling, processing, data set sharing, and carefully crafted science into a broader social context, Making the Mexican Diabetic underscores the implications of geneticizing disease while illuminating the significance of type 2 diabetes research in American life.Diabetes -- Social aspectsGenetics -- Research -- Social aspectsHealth and race -- United StatesMedical anthropologyMexican Americans -- Health and hygieneNon-insulin-dependent diabetes -- Mexico -- Genetic aspectsSocial medicineType 2 diabetesMexicoGenetic aspectsMexican AmericansHealth and hygieneUnited StatesGeneticsSocial aspectsResearchHealth and raceSocial aspectsDiabetesMedical anthropologySocial medicineGlucose Metabolism DisordersAmerican Native Continental Ancestry GroupRiskHispanic AmericansCultureCausalityGeneticsBiomedical ResearchEndocrine System DiseasesPopulation CharacteristicsSociologyHealth CareSocial SciencesProbabilityBiologyEpidemiologic FactorsContinental Population GroupsAnthropology, CulturalDiseasesEthnic GroupsResearchMetabolic DiseasesMexican AmericansRisk FactorsSocioeconomic FactorsDiabetes MellitusEthnologyIndians, North AmericanGenetic ResearchPopulation GroupsAnthropologyScienceBiological Science DisciplinesStatistics as TopicPublic HealthQuality of Health CareNutritional and Metabolic DiseasesNatural Science DisciplinesPersonsEpidemiologic MethodsHealth Care Evaluation MechanismsHealth Care Quality, Access, and EvaluationGeographyEnvironment and Public HealthOccupationsInvestigative TechniquesPublic HealthHILCCHealth & Biological SciencesHILCCPublic Health - GeneralHILCCNorth AmericaAmericasMexicoUnited StatesGeographic LocationsElectronic books.Diabetes -- Social aspects.Genetics -- Research -- Social aspects.Health and race -- United States.Medical anthropology.Mexican Americans -- Health and hygiene.Non-insulin-dependent diabetes -- Mexico -- Genetic aspects.Social medicine.Type 2 diabetesGenetic aspectsMexican AmericansHealth and hygieneGeneticsSocial aspectsResearchHealth and raceSocial aspectsDiabetesMedical anthropologySocial medicineGlucose Metabolism DisordersAmerican Native Continental Ancestry GroupRiskHispanic AmericansCultureCausalityGeneticsBiomedical ResearchEndocrine System DiseasesPopulation CharacteristicsSociologyHealth CareSocial SciencesProbabilityBiologyEpidemiologic FactorsContinental Population GroupsAnthropology, CulturalDiseasesEthnic GroupsResearchMetabolic DiseasesMexican AmericansRisk FactorsSocioeconomic FactorsDiabetes MellitusEthnologyIndians, North AmericanGenetic ResearchPopulation GroupsAnthropologyScienceBiological Science DisciplinesStatistics as TopicPublic HealthQuality of Health CareNutritional and Metabolic DiseasesNatural Science DisciplinesPersonsEpidemiologic MethodsHealth Care Evaluation MechanismsHealth Care Quality, Access, and EvaluationGeographyEnvironment and Public HealthOccupationsInvestigative TechniquesPublic HealthHealth & Biological SciencesPublic Health - General362.196/46200896872073Montoya Michaelauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1055438DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910459031703321Making the Mexican Diabetic2488835UNINA
