少女是许多健康发展干预措施的中心。基于马拉维农村的人种学研究，我分析了一个国际非政府组织的项目的设计、实施和接受情况，该项目旨在通过让女孩上学来减少少女怀孕。利用Fassin的文化主义理论作为意识形态，我分析了过分强调文化的倾向是如何在项目的行为改变方法中固有的，但在当地却被阶级塑造的发展观念所强化，并通过强化种族刻板印象而发挥作用。我认为，文化主义建立在以往将现代和传统一分为二的卫生发展倡议的基础上，并通过短期捐助资金得到加强。
Adolescent girls are at the center of manyhealth development interventions. Based on ethnographic research in rural Malawi, I analyze the design, implementation, and reception of an international non-government organization's project aiming to reduce teenage pregnancies by keeping girls in school. Drawing on Fassin's theorization of culturalism as ideology, I analyze how a tendency to overemphasize culture is inherent to the project's behavior change approach, but is reinforced locally by class-shaped notions of development, and plays out through reinforcing ethnic stereotypes. I argue that culturalism builds upon previous health development initiatives that dichotomized modernity and tradition, and is strengthened by short-term donor funding.
