This week Dr. Alyson Young will lead our discussion of a brand-new article by her mentor, Ivy Pike, and colleagues:

Pike, I. L., Straight, B., Oesterle, M., Hilton, C., & Lanyasunya, A. (2010). Documenting the health consequences of endemic warfare in three pastoralist communities of northern Kenya: A conceptual framework. Social Science & Medicine, 70(1), 45-52.

This article is part of a special issue of Social Science and Medicine on conflict, violence and health. There are a series of interesting and important articles on this timely topic. You may want to begin with the introduction to the issue by Catherine Panter-Brick, “Conflict, violence, and health: Setting a new interdisciplinary agenda.”

We meet tomorrow in Grinter 375 (Latin American Studies), 12:50 – 1:40 p.m.
