Medical Sociology and Social Theories of Health and Disease
Main Article Content
Abstract
The relationship of sociology with medical knowledge from the beginning was not
an easy task between two different scientific fields to produce knowledge of
disease, health and health care. Rather, sociological intervention in the field of
medicine was not acceptable by specialists in the medical field. However, with the
development of social life and overlapping multiple factors in the emergence of
diseases, their diagnosis and methods of treatment, the gradual opening of
medicine to sociology appeared in an attempt to introduce some social factors in
the interpretation of diseases, the role of the patient, the relationship between the
doctor and the patient, and the formulation of some scientific approaches and
theories.
