This study explores the history of research in Medical Anthropology by examining key concepts in the field with a focus on their relevance with findings from the field of History of Medicine. The concepts discussed in this paper are Medical Pluralism, Social Suffering, Biopolitics, and Care. Since concepts internalize the ethnographic gaze, what this paper aims is to trace the development of the gaze on a historical axis. Although concepts come from a specific historical period, they are by no means exclusive to it, as they are revisited again and again through various discourses. In other words, the insight that the previous meaning of a concept has grasped is instilled into the revisited concept. In this way, concepts engage in historical communication, create intersections with the interests of History of Medicine. By discussing these intersections with each concept, this paper suggests the complementary roles of the two fields and their approach to historical events and phenomena.
本研究通过考察医学人类学领域的关键概念，探讨了医学人类学的历史，重点关注这些概念与医学史领域研究发现的相关性。本文讨论的概念有医学多元主义、社会苦难、生命政治和关怀。由于概念内化了民族志的视角，本文旨在沿着历史轴线追溯这一视角的发展。尽管概念来自特定的历史时期，但它们绝不仅限于此，因为它们会通过各种话语不断被重新审视。换句话说，概念之前所把握的意义会被注入到被重新审视的概念中。通过这种方式，概念进行了历史交流，与医学史的兴趣产生了交集。通过每个概念的讨论，本文提出了这两个领域的互补作用以及它们对历史事件和现象的研究方法。
