abstract: 'The present article reviews, in relation to quantitative work on the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
social structure, papers published in Sociology of Health and Illness
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
during its first 25 years. Each issue published during the years
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1979-2002 has been examined; and quantitative papers, relating to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
various aspects of the social structure, have been identified. Such
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
papers are found to have formed a minor but substantively significant
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
theme within the Journal. These contributions situate the journal
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
between sociology and social epidemiology. Articles in the Journal, for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
example, have been part of sociological debates about the measurement of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
social class, and of social epidemiological debates about the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
relationship between income distribution and population health. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
contribution of Sociology of Health and Illness to a number of such
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
debates is reviewed. The article concludes that the present situation,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in particular the intellectual crisis in social epidemiology and social
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
science investment in large data sets, gives the Journal the chance to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
build on this distinguished tradition by encouraging, through its
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
publication policy, the further development of quantitative medical
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sociology.'
