The social phenomenon of rare diseases
This paper explores the social phenomenon of rare diseases through a logical-modal analysis. Although rare diseases originate within a biomedical framework and are increasingly recognised by institutional and empirical literature as issues of equity, inclusion, care and participation, this recognition has not usually been formalised in Durkheimian terms. The study applies modal logic, based on possible-worlds semantics and Kripke models, to clari…
Why Luhmann? Social systems theory for a sociology of suicide in the platform age
Suicide becomes a sociological object through the communications that make it observable, recordable, reportable, and governable. This Perspective draws on Luhmann’s social systems theory to analyse how suicide-related meanings are selected and stabilised across functionally differentiated subsystems. The argument treats suicide as a limit-case perturbation that is processed differently by health care, law, education, media, and platform governan…
Is There a Sociology of Suicide
A sociology of suicide plainly exists in a historical sense. Since Durkheim, sociologists have ssshown that suicide varies with integration, regulation, inequality, relational embeddedness, institutional arrangements, and cultural repertoires of meaning. The stronger question concerns the conditions under which this work coheres as a field. This essay argues that a specifically sociological explanation of suicide locates suicidal trajectories wit…
Socio-historical understanding of the institutionalization of rare diseases—analysis of Spanish policies in the European context

Adopting a socio-historical approach, the research will examine the various processes of institutionalization in rare disease research. The objective is to gain an in-depth …

Los psicodélicos son un símbolo de la posmodernidad. El mayor interés por ellos en diferentes etapas de la historia de las sociedades modernas refleja valores antagónicos a los que llevaron a su prohibición. Mediante una revisión teórica, se establece una relación entre la construcción de los discursos sociales centrados en las potencialidades positivas de los psicodélicos y unos valores posmaterialistas vinculados al individualismo expresivo, en…
The social evolution of Covid-19
The COVID-19 pandemic was an unprecedented global event in recent history. Beginning with an initial outbreak in Wuhan, China, in December 2019, the virus spread rapidly across the globe, causing millions of deaths and triggering an unprecedented health, economic, and social crisis. The initial response to the outbreak in many countries was the implementation of social distancing measures, including the closure of schools and businesses, the canc…
