规范不胖的身体似乎已经传播到世界各地，加上全球化的信念，即瘦是个人管理自我和努力工作的结果。我们研究的责任和责任的重量和“脂肪”在四个不同的地理和文化位置的主题：城市格鲁吉亚，美国;郊区大坂，日本;城市恩卡纳西翁，巴拉圭;和城市阿皮亚，萨摩亚。使用一种新颖的元主题方法来比较和对比这四个不同的地方，其特征是不同的人口肥胖患病率以及与身体规范和理想相关的特定文化历史，为比较跨文化/多地点民族志研究提供了灵活的工具包。我们表明，自责，标志着一个明确的个人责任感的重量和失败感，在这种责任，是存在于每个现场，但不同的程度和表达方式不同。[fat肥胖，元主题，耻辱，自责]
Norms valorizing not‐fat bodies appear to have spread around the world, combined with a globalizing belief that thinness is the result of individual management of self and hard work. We examine themes of blame and felt responsibility for weight and “fat” in four distinct geographic and cultural locations: peri‐urban Georgia, United States; suburban Osaka, Japan; urban Encarnación, Paraguay; and urban Apia, Samoa. Use of a novel metatheme approach that compares and contrasts these four distinct places characterized by different population‐level prevalences of obesity and by specific cultural histories relevant to body norms and ideals provides a flexible toolkit for comparative cross‐cultural/multi‐sited ethnographic research. We show that self‐blame, marked by an articulated sense of individual responsibility for weight and a sense of failing in this responsibility, is present in every field site, but to varying degrees and expressed in different ways.[fat, obesity, metatheme, stigma, self‐blame]
