On March 4, 2015 I will be giving a talk at UMD’s Program for the Study of the Environment’s Workshop that addresses how sociologists can become more active in the diagnosis of environmental health problems. The framework stems from an article I co-authored back in my first year of graduate school in 2011 with Phil Brown and Mercedes Lyson published in Social Science & Medicine . We make the case for a new approach to diagnosis that not only gives social scientists a role in the process, but also works to identify social structures and actors that contribute to disease and illness.
