<i>Reimagining Social Medicine from the South</i>, political ecologist Abigail
H. Neely explores social medicine’s possibilities and limitations at one of its
most important origin sites: the Pholela Community Health Centre (PCHC) in
South Africa. The PCHC’s focus on medical and social factors of health yielded
remarkable success. And yet South Africa’s systemic racial inequality hindered
health center work, and witchcraft illnesses challenged a program rooted in the
sciences. By rewriting the story of social medicine from Pholela, Neely
challenges global health practitioners to recognize the multiple worlds and
actors that shape health and healing in Africa and beyond.</span></p>
