Abstract:<\/strong> Nationalist campaigns in early 20th century India sought both a homegrown alternative to imposed British practices and full participation in the modern world. Among the outcomes was the positioning of Unani-Tibb (Greco-Islamic medicine) as an expression of Islamic modernity. Household clinics, state laboratories, and educational institutions were organized as sites for the constitution of systems capable of dispensing health. What were the novel forms of authority, heritage, piety, and populism that emerged in such a context? This talk brings us up to the present to think about Islamic modernity in contemporary South Asia as the instantiation of particular instruments and ideas about legitimacy and value (the gendering of hereditary and clinical knowledges for example) as well as the animation of particular histories in the present. What emerges is a politics of care in which the state relies on traditional knowledge systems to support its appearance as uniquely! plural when it comes to science. Drawing from ethnographic and biographical analysis in this presentation, Dr. Bright will comment on the multiple regimes of worldliness and value that surround and structure the practice of medicine in India today.<\/p>\n
