DESCRIPTION:This roundtable will discuss emerging forms of expertise among
  patients and non-dominant medical voices in various settings across late 
 twentieth century. Drawing from a wealth of archival research\, oral histo
 ries and ethnographic sources\, this expert panel sheds light on how criti
 cisms of medicalization led to the rise of alternative cultures of biomedi
 cal orthodoxy within the context of the developments of new market and tec
 hnologies. Focusing on pregnancy\, childbirth and HIV AIDS\, these present
 ations look at the increasing participation of patients and peripheral med
 ical ‘experts’\, guided by their own experience\, as co-agents and som
 etimes opponents in the creation of medical knowledge.
