In view of this multiplicity of forms, the chapters adopt a broad definition of health data that encompasses databases, statistics as well as oral and written records and reports about health. In addition to close historiographic insights into the interactions of indigenous and colonial ways of organising knowledge around health, the chapters explore contemporary ways in which medical professionals are mobilized or potentially demobilized by the standards, methods and calculative devices that accompany the increasing production of health data...The authors show that the contemporary hype around the datafication of health is neither new nor exceptional, but instead needs to be read in broader historical perspective. Through its unique combination of historical, sociological and ethnographic methods, the book shows that the regulation and standardization of health produces both mobilizations and demobilizations, as well as appropriations and resistances.. | | 出版日期 | Book 2024 | | 关键词 | Health; Datafication; Health Information Systems; Ghana; Africa; Ghana Studies; African Studies; global hea | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-97-3500-6 | | isbn_softcover | 978-981-97-3502-0 | | isbn_ebook | 978-981-97-3500-6 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapor |
