Stigma is a dehumanizing process a method of shaming and blaming that is embedded in our beliefs about who does and does not have value within society In Lazy Crazy and Disgusting medical anthropologists Alexandra Brewis and Amber Wutich explore another side of the issue the startling fact that wellintentioned public health campaigns can create new and sometimes damaging stigma even when they are successfulBrewis and Wutich present a novel synthetic argument about how stigmas act as a massive driver of global disease and suffering killing or sickening billions every year They focus on three of the most complex difficulttofix global health efforts bringing sanitation to all treating mental illness and preventing obesity They explain how and why humans so readily stigmatize how this derails ongoing public health efforts and why this process invariably hurts people who are already at risk They also explore how new stigmas enter global health so easily and consider why destigmatization is so very difficult Finally the book offers potential solutions that may be able to prevent challenge and fix stigma Stigma elimination Brewis and Wutich conclude must be recognized as a necessary and core component of all global health effortsDrawing on the authors keen observations and decades of fieldwork Lazy Crazy and Disgusting combines a wide array of ethnographic evidence from around the globe to demonstrate conclusively how stigma undermines global healths basic goals to create both health and justice.
