582 - Section on Medical Sociology Paper Session. Health Inequalities: Local, National, and Global Perspectives

Tue, August 23, 2:30 to 4:10pm, TBA

Session Submission Type: Paper Session 100min

Description

Within the current context of rapidly increasing worldwide migration, local and national social upheaval, and growing economic inequalities, it is particularly important to understand the influence of rapid social change on health and disease. This session will focus on the ways in which health inequalities are created, experienced, and/or addressed at local, national, and/or global levels. Papers may utilize quantitative, qualitative, or mixed methods approaches. We invite papers that make innovative theoretical, methodological, empirical, and/or practical contributions to the study of health in society and contribute to increasing health equity and justice.
