The Spectacular Generic

The Spectacular Generic

In The Spectacular Generic, Cori Hayden examines how generic drugs have transformed public health politics and everyday experiences of pharmaceutical consumption in Latin America. Focusing on the Mexican pharmacy chain Farmacias Similares and its proprietor, Víctor González Torres, Hayden shows how generics have become potent commodities in a postpatent world. In the early 2000s, González Torres, a.k.a. “Dr. Simi,” capitalized on the creation of new markets for generic medicines, selling cheaper copies of leading-brand drugs across Latin America. But Dr. Simi has not simply competed with the transnationals; his enterprise has also come to compete with the Mexican state, reorganizing the provision of medicine and basic health care for millions of people. Hayden juxtaposes this story with Dr. Simi’s less successful efforts in Argentina, where he confronted a radically different configuration of pharmaceutical politics. Building from these diverging trajectories, Hayden illuminates the politics of generic substitution as a question that goes beyond substituting one drug for another. Generic politics can radically reshape the relations among consumers, states, and pharmaceutical markets, even as they have yet to resolve the problems of cost and access.

Many times, contrary situations and the tragedies in life seem to destroy the inner core of the body, mind, soul, and spirit. In some instances, these incidents can cause irreparable damage to victims or survivors who are left with more questions than answers. However, with our Divine Gift of Life, we are given the strong will to survive, to push forward, and to persevere until we succeed. As we confront "the issues of life" and heal the wounds, then we are able to break the adverse cycle of victimization and move from Darkness into Light. Walking Wounded... From Darkness into The Light ...is a Quest for Healing that not only visits the saga of a family but it also serves as an account of a young mother's "inner war story" while living through the "aftershock" of a "night of tragedy".

My life was perfect. I had everything I wanted, including the love of a man that intended to make all of my dreams come true. Until... "...the night my life as I knew it ended." In the blink of an eye, all I'd once known was ripped away. Suffering in limbo, full of fear and regret, I had only memories and dreams to comfort me, urging me to fight. "...marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled..." But they stole it all. Awakened to betrayal and pain, I struggle to find a new beginning. Yet the past seeps in, pulling me under. No matter how hard I try to keep my head above water, it threatens to ruin me. How can I really live with my hopes for the future still frozen? And if the ice thaws, will I have the courage to build new dreams?
