Social Determinants of Health
I think it's interesting to think about social determinants of health. There just seems to be this ebb and flow throughout the recent history of sort of public health literature where people will have, you know, relatively class conscious or Marxist leanings. And then that discourse will sort of just die out for a little while, come back at regular occurrences. For instance, in the 19th century, Rudolph Werkchow writing essentially about class powers, politics and the socialeterminants of health in the context of a cholera outbreak in Berlin. It is so sad that thousands always must die in misery so that a few hundred may live well, unquote.
