Calcutta Medical College (CMC) – A Tool in the Making of ‘Modern’ Citizenry and Neo/Navya-Ayurveda
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Following the French Revolution health was added to the rights of people and was assumed that health citizenship should be a characteristic of the modern democratic state. Methods for assessing the strength of the state by counting the population became a new state characteristic. Arguably, the human body has been brought twice over into the market: first by people selling their capacity to work, and second, through the intermediary of health.
