We trace the history of medical pluralism in Germany from the perspective of a clinically oriented medical anthropology. The continuation of naturopathic medicine in both formal and informal health care illumines fundamental epistemological issues. Cultural and social forces in Germany shaped the scientific and technical development of medicine, which continues in a form distinctly different from that of medicine in North America. The construction of clinical reality in German practice is distinctive and edifying for a cross-cultural understanding of medical systems of knowledge and praxis.
我们从临床导向的医学人类学视角追溯德国医学多元主义的历史。自然疗法在正规和非正规医疗保健中的延续揭示了基本的认识论问题。德国的文化和社会力量塑造了医学的科学技术发展，这种发展仍以一种与北美医学截然不同的形式延续着。德国实践中临床现实的构建对于跨文化理解医学知识和实践体系具有独特性和启发性。
