Reflections on Museum Week 2018 and Restitution-Juniper Publishers

Image
Archaeology & Anthropology -  Juniper Publishers Opinion Discussions on restitution have been acquiring momentum. Museum Week in 2018 has been marked in the press by a series of articles which support this direction. It started with an email from an Indian colleague who was at the ARCA conference last year where I was talking about the history of collecting of European museums and the gathering of antiquities during the late 18th and early 19th century. This is an argument about which I have been very passionate and that has been at the core of my research interests, teaching and public engagement, since my postgraduate days. On the Queen’s birthday, Anuraag Saxena had written a provocative and passionate article Your Majesty: Thou shalt not steal on the need to return Indian artefacts to India, calling for a ‘reverse [of] the colonial-era plunder, especially symbols of our culture - our heritage’. With the India Pride Project, Anuraag is an active prop...

Indispensable Knowledge of Eclampsia for Archaelogists and Anthropologists-Juniper Publishers

Image
Archaeology & Anthropology -  Juniper Publishers Introduction It is of great paradox that, besides medical scientific journals, in general science (and even in general press such as feminine magazines for example), very few is written on the plague of human reproduction which is eclampsia (and pre-eclampsia). Yet, these diseases are responsible of ap. 50,000 maternal deaths worldwide each year (among some 135 million human pregnancies annually) [1] and infinitely much more human neonatal deaths, notably in poor countries. For example, in a recent study in the University maternity of the capital of Madagascar, there were during a 8-months follow-up 145 cases of preeclampsia of which 65 (45%) ended in eclampsia (epileptic seizures “grand-mal”) with 7 maternal deaths of young women (24 to 34 years of age), and among eclamptics 40 (61%) neonatal deaths [2]. This discretion is mainly due to the fact that since a century now [3] Eclampsia/Preeclampsia has bee...
