Chinese medicine in Cameroon / Pokam, Hilaire de Prince   Journal Article
Pokam, Hilaire de Prince Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract China's arrival on the African economic scene is overturning the balance of forces in place since the independence of African countries. Africa is regarded by some as a "new hunting ground" or "promised land" for China, making it part of its global strategy. This article sets out to examine one of China's so-called "soft power" strategies, represented by the widespread practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine overseas. It focuses on Cameroon, which is a mainstay for Central Africa on account of its harbour and its regional economic dominance.

How China's Wildlife Trade Legislation Permits Commercial Trade in Protected Wild Animal Species / White, Aron   Journal Article
White, Aron Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Wildlife trade policies in China and elsewhere have come under increased scrutiny following suggestions that the emergence of the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 may have been linked to trade in wild animals. The breeding of and trade in most terrestrial wild animal species for consumption as food were prohibited in China in February 2020, but trade for non-food purposes such as ornamental items or traditional medicine continues to be covered by provisions in the Wildlife Protection Law (WPL). While a superficial reading of the WPL could lead to the conclusion that commercial trade in nationally protected species is generally prohibited, in practice key language is interpreted to permit commercial trade in the parts and derivatives of protected wild animal species, including those subject to the most stringent protection within China and internationally, such as leopards and pangolins.

Management of the AIDS epidemic and local/global use of chinese medicine / Micollier, Evelyne   Journal Article
Micollier, Evelyne Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2009.
Summary/Abstract In the context of a social and medical response to AIDS at a national level recommended by the Chinese authorities, the policy of eventual extension of treatment to all patients reveals "Chinese characteristics" that are akin to international concerns regarding the use of alternative and complementary medicine. One concerns the use of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), principally in combined treatment (biomedicine with Chinese medicine) in a public health system in which it plays a relatively large part compared to other health systems in the world. This article focuses on the integration of TCM in therapies and research on HIV/AIDS.
