Outline of Final Research Achievements

The past several decades saw the rapid development of knowledge on human life and technology to transform it at the molecular level. An increasing number of pharmaceuticals are newly invented and, then, produced, circulated and consumed globally. Pharmaceuticals are thus at the heart of transformation of human life at both molecular and global levels.
In this study, we sought to understand how these pharmaceutical transformations gives rise to new forms of bio-politics and affect people’s everyday lives by conducting ethnographic researches. Our researches have shown different ways in which pharmaceuticals can become a medium of governing health of population. At the same time, we also found that pharmaceuticals connect individuals in unexpected . A comparison of our ethnographic researches demonstrated both at these levels of bio-politics and bio-sociality, chemical processes and social processes are co-constituted.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

今日、ライフサイエンスやバイオテクノロジーの発達に伴い、新たな政治や経済の秩序が生まれつつある。こうした事態が人間の生のあり方にどのような影響を与えるのかを理解することは、人文・社会科学における喫緊の課題である。こうした中で、医薬という現在の生物医学の中核を担う対象に焦点を絞りながら、世界各地で民族誌的調査を行うことで、生命に関する科学・技術の発展がもたらす社会的問題や生にまつわる新たな政治・経済についての社会科学的論議に新たな視点を提供した点で本研究は大きな学術的・社会的意義を有する。
