Abstract

Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork from one rural area in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, in this article I trace Community Health Workers' sentiments of abandonment, which they expressed after the termination of an internationally funded global health program. The program's open inclusion criteria meant that many children were enrolled during its implementation, signifying its success. However, after the program ended, the enumeration of many children produced residual feelings of abandonment. Grounded in a historical context, I illuminate the specific consequences of counting social lives and the ways in which global health programs and their practices continue to have a phantom presence after they end.

南非夸祖鲁-纳塔尔省弃婴统计:援助结束后的统计结果。

根据南非夸祖鲁-纳塔尔省一个农村地区的人种学田野调查，在这篇文章中，我追踪了社区卫生工作者在国际资助的全球卫生项目终止后所表达的被遗弃的情绪。该计划的开放纳入标准意味着许多儿童在实施期间入学，这标志着它的成功。然而，在项目结束后，对许多孩子的列举产生了被遗弃的残余感觉。在历史背景下，我阐明了计算社会生活的具体后果，以及全球卫生项目及其实践在结束后继续存在的方式。

期刊介绍： Medical Anthropology provides a global forum for scholarly articles on the social patterns of ill-health and disease transmission, and experiences of and knowledge about health, illness and wellbeing. These include the nature, organization and movement of peoples, technologies and treatments, and how inequalities pattern access to these. Articles published in the journal showcase the theoretical sophistication, methodological soundness and ethnographic richness of contemporary medical anthropology. Through the publication of empirical articles and editorials, we encourage our authors and readers to engage critically with the key debates of our time. Medical Anthropology invites manuscripts on a wide range of topics, reflecting the diversity and the expanding interests and concerns of researchers in the field.
