The accounts of women navigating pregnancy in a post-conflict
setting are characterized by widespread poverty, weak
infrastructure, and inadequate health services. With a focus on a
remote rural agrarian community in northern Uganda, Global Health
and the Village brings the complex local and transnational factors
governing women's access to safe maternity care into view. In
examining local cultural, social, economic, and health system
factors shaping maternity care and birth, Rudrum also analyzes the
encounter between ambitious global health goals and the local
realities. Interrogating how culture and technical problems are
framed in international health interventions, Rudrum reveals that
the objectifying and colonizing premises on which interventions are
based often result in the negative consequences in local
healthcare.
