Its chapters develop narratives that go beyond traditional representations of medicine in national overviews, which have focused mostly on stateprofession interactions. Instead, the chapters bring more complex histories of health, care and citizenship. These new histories explore the relation between medicine and a variety of sociopolitical and cultural views and realities, treating themes such as gender, religion, disability, media, colonialism, education and social activism. The novelty of the book lies in its thorough attention to the (too often little studied) second half of the twentieth century and to the multiplicity of actors, places and media involved in the medical field. In assembling a variety of new scholarship, the book also makes a contribution to ‘decentring’ the European historiography of medicine by adding the perspective of a particular country Belgium to the literature.Social histories of medicine.Health services accessibilityBelgium19th centuryHealth services accessibilityBelgium20th centuryMedicineBelgiumHistory19th centuryMedicineBelgiumHistory20th centuryCitizenshipBelgiumHistory19th century.CitizenshipBelgiumHistory20th centuryHistory of MedicinemupHistory Of MedicinebicsscHISTORYEuropeWesternbisacshHealth services accessibilityHealth services accessibilityMedicineHistoryMedicineHistoryCitizenshipHistoryCitizenshipHistoryHistory of MedicineHistory Of MedicineHISTORYEuropeWestern610.9493Vandendriessche Jorisedt1295486Majerus BenoitedtVandendriessche JorisothMajerus BenoitothWellcome Trustfndhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fndUkMaJRUBOOK9910548277803321Medical histories of Belgium3023522UNINA
