This article addresses the question of whether structural violence had a demonstrable impact upon the health outcomes of the indigenous population of colonial Indochina, specifically during the 1930s. The article comparatively examines the situation of the European and Indochinese populations with respect to the per capita availability of financial resources for health care, medical facilities, and health workers. It then comparatively examines the case fatality rates for thirteen different medical conditions, infant mortality, and the 1937-1938 cholera epidemic. The article argues that given the superior access to health care enjoyed by the European population and the demonstrably more negative health outcomes of the Indochinese population, structural violence did play a role in generating those comparatively more negative health outcomes for the Indochinese population.
