Скачать или смотреть Panel 2: Drug Regulation, Knowledge, Use—New Social History of Pharmacy and Pharmaceuticals Festival

The American Institute of the History of Pharmacy and the University of Wisconsin–Madison School of Pharmacy were pleased to host the virtual festival, A New Social History of Pharmacy & Pharmaceuticals. The Festival was a free online streaming event that ran from Thursday, September 24, through Tuesday, September 29, 2020.

This five-day interdisciplinary Festival aimed to generate a discussion related to the under-explored social history of pharmacy and pharmaceuticals. We hope the contributed paper panels, books talks, and invited Festival talks stimulated/connected new scholarship and placed a spotlight on emerging trends in the studies of pharmaceuticals, drugs, and alcohol more broadly.

Festival Panel 2, "Drug Regulation, Knowledge, and Use" was chaired by Dr. John Parascandola, and featured three papers:

Nidia A. Olvera Hernández, Mora Institute (Mexico City): “The Mexican Pharmacopeia: The Inclusion of Psychoactive Natural Drugs in the Official Medicine (1846–1930)”

Christopher Blakely, University of California, Los Angeles: “Mkaumwa, Calumba and Miami Columbo: Slavery and Expropriated Pharmacology from the Swahili Coast to the Ohio Valley”

Michael Lewis, Christopher Newport University: “From Bar Rooms to Drug Stores to Dispensaries: The Evolutionary Response to the Liquor Problem in Athens Georgia, 1891”
