This analysis of over a century of public health campaigns against human African trypanosomiasis (sleeping sickness) in Angola aims to unravel the role of (utopian) dreams in global health. A ention to the emergence and use of concepts such as neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) and ideas about elimination or eradication highlights how these concepts and utopian dreams are instrumental for the advancement of particular agendas in an ever-shi ing fi eld of global health. The article shows how specifi c representations of the elimination and eradication of diseases, framed over a century ago, continue to push Western views and politics of care onto others. This analysis generates insight into how global health and its politics of power functioned in Angola during colonialism and post-independence.

将人类学纳入全球卫生

对安哥拉针对非洲人类锥虫病(昏睡病)的一个多世纪以来的公共卫生运动进行的分析旨在揭示(乌托邦式)梦想在全球卫生中的作用。对诸如被忽视的热带病(NTDs)等概念的出现和使用以及对消灭或根除的想法的强调,突显了这些概念和乌托邦梦想如何在不断发展的全球卫生领域中促进特定议程的发展。这篇文章显示了一个多世纪前所建立的关于消除和消除疾病的具体代表如何继续将西方的观点和护理政治推向其他领域。这项分析使人们对殖民主义和独立后全球健康及其权力政治如何在安哥拉发挥了作用。
