Abstract

Sociologists have much to contribute to the study of global health and development. Our discipline's fundamental concerns with power and inequality uniquely position us to leverage theoretical, conceptual, substantive, and empirical insights for the understanding of engines, outcomes, and processes of global health and development. This special issue highlights the diversity and depth of sociological engagements with the topics of global health and development. In this introduction to this special issue, I briefly outline how sociologists have approached the study of global health and development despite the fact that this is a nascent and not yet fully coalesced field. While medical sociologists and political sociologists have historically studied these topics, they have also marginalized them. Exciting sociological research is, however, underway. The challenge is in ensuring that scholarship on global health and development is in conversation across subfields in order to propel research on global health and development forward, both substantively and theoretically.

全球健康与发展的新兴社会学
社会学家对全球健康与发展的研究大有贡献。我们学科对权力和不平等的基本关注使我们能够利用理论、概念、实质性和实证见解来理解全球健康和发展的引擎、结果和过程。本期特刊突出了社会学参与全球卫生与发展主题的多样性和深度。在本期特刊的引言中,我简要概述了社会学家是如何研究全球健康与发展的,尽管这是一个新生的、尚未完全融合的领域。虽然医学社会学家和政治社会学家在历史上研究过这些话题,但他们也把它们边缘化了。然而,令人兴奋的社会学研究正在进行中。挑战在于确保关于全球卫生与发展的学术研究在各个子领域开展对话,以便在实质上和理论上推动关于全球卫生与发展的研究向前发展。
