摘要
This article describes the work of negotiating and reinterpreting ''standard'' protocol and criteria at the level of local practice, using the example of the procurement of human cadaver organs for transplantation. The tension between efforts to standardize and globalize biomedical science, on the one hand, and fitting these efforts into everyday practices and understandings of practitioners, on the other results in new constructions of medical knowledge about bodies and persons.
