Social conditioning of health and disease of a man
Abstract
A rapid development of studies of sociologists of medicine on the one hand
and the traditional domination of medicine by natural sciences on the other, induce
for a more profound reflection of the essence of two closely interrelated processes
of health and disease of a man. Its thorough study calls for enrichement of
present knowledge of health problems of individuals and society with a produce
of social sciences and for defining the participation of sociologists in studies on
origins of disease process.
Following a thesis of social nature of human being and abandoning naturalistic
interpretation of individual and collective phenomena effects a demonstration
of all limitations of medical and natural interpretation of sickness and health but
also proves a thesis of socio- natural substance of subject of medical studies.
Therefore, learning of the whole conditioning of a genesis of morbid process
cannot do without knowledge and concepts of social sciences. In consequence
human malady can be defined as a socio-natural process set by historically and culturally changing conditions of social existence which describe relations entered
by an individual throughout personal life with natural and social environment.
In this aspect a research program on sociogenesis of disease contains examination
of three spheres of social reality: 1) influence of social process on human
ontogenesis, what eqauls to defining social premises of such formation of features
of organism which either by themselves or conditioned by individuals functioning
in society and nature predispose to morbid process, 2) learning of that aspect of
social process in which individual or group intervention in the world of nature
effects such relations between individual and environment which would cause
morbid process, 3) learning of those phenomena and social processes which are
forming personality and social conditions of human existence and of those which
introduce a man into such relations 'with social environment that a morbid process
is developed on account of particular features of individual's organism and-or
personality.
The research program on social conditioning of disease is a counterproposal
to earlier formulated sociological theories of disease.
