Health Care Under the Knife: Moving Beyond Capitalism for Our Health
Howard Waitzkin and his co-authors argue that it is better to trust civil servants and governments with our health than capitalist managers and corporations, since the former can be held more publicly accountable and the latter cannot. They look askance at public-private partnerships, non-governmental organizations, and foundations that receive tax deductible contributions. These are plutocratic health governance systems in which wealthy foundati…

Building a Community of Sociological Practice: Certifying Practitioners and Accrediting Programs
Unlike psychology and economics, the discipline of sociology in the United States has not encouraged the training and practice of sociologists outside academia and scientific research enterprises. Certification and program accreditation attempt to return the discipline of sociology to its practice-oriented origins and build a professional community of practitioners. Individual practitioners may be certified as more than adequately trained and exp…
The Plague of Athens and the Cult of Asclepius: A Case Study of Collective Behavior and a Social Movement
During the Peloponnesian War between Athens and Sparta, several waves of a plague killed an estimated one-third of the civilian Athenian population and one-fourth of its army. Thucydides account of the plague (430-426 BCE) and the subsequent rise of the cult of Asclepius can be examined as perhaps the earliest case study of collective behavior and a social movement. In his account of the plague, Thucydides reveals a sociological imagination and c…

Now That We Are Here: Discrimination, Disparagement, and Harassment at Work and the Experience of Women Lawyers
This article examines the sexist work experiences of a sample of women lawyers in a mediumsized midwestern city. Specifically, it focuses on reports of discrimination, gender disparagement, and sexual harassment as components of gendered systems that maintain and reinforce inequalities between men and women on the job. The relationships between these experiences, professional role orientation (feminist versus careerist) and structural work charac…

The role of public opinion polling in health legislation
Two public opinion polls, in Los Angeles and Michigan, on smoking in public places contradicted findings from other major surveys. Both were commissioned by the tobacco interests during consideration of non-smoking legislation to measure opinion and influence the outcome. Analysis reveals the two polls to be remarkably similar and in violation of basic principles of survey research. Response categories lacked objective or parallel phrasing, respo…

Goal Implementation and Outcome in Medical Schools
The study of goals in organizations has theorized about, but not examined, how organizational structure may affect goal attainment. In this study we examine the relationship between product goals and outcome in terms of internship placements for 78 American medical schools. When variables such as hospital affiliation or student ability intervene in the goal-outcome relationship, we claim that the schools can manipulate them for goal attainment. T…
