In this article, I analyze what I call the ecology of disabled minds in urban Uganda. This analytic notion allows me to account for the way that an interactive web of people, cultural expectations, historical changes, official discourses, and institutional resources collectively contribute to the manifestation of certain forms of human difference as unusual, as cognitive, and as disabilities. Such a notion further allows me to make sense of a set of puzzles I encountered during fieldwork, and to track the emergence of new kinds of minds in contemporary Uganda.
在本文中，我分析了我所谓的乌干达城市中残疾思维的生态。这个分析性概念使我能够解释人与人之间、文化期望、历史变革、官方话语和机构资源的互动网络是如何共同导致某些形式的人类差异表现为异常、认知和残疾的。这个概念还使我能够理解我在实地工作中遇到的一系列难题，并追踪当代乌干达新出现的思维方式。
