[Patients and homeopathy: an overview of sociological literature].

This paper is divided into three parts: first is an overview of the sociology of the doctor-patient-relationship in general; second is a discussion of the sociology of homeopathy as a heterogeneous form of medicine and as a form of medical pluralism; third is a sketch of some sociological views of the homeopathic patient. My general thesis is that the homeopathic doctor-patient-relationship may be considered both pre-modern and post-modern. It is characterized by partial expertise of the patient, and by longer patients' accounts.

Natural and deliberate health: coping with health in German autobiographies from the 18th and 19 centuries.

Coping with illness is a topic well established in social psychology, and in other social sciences. In this essay I focus upon coping with health. I restrict myself to health as an invidivual activity. Starting with a differentiation between natural and deliberate health, which was made in the times of the Enlightenment, I look into alternative health accounts represented in German autobiographies.

Industrialization and the construction of health risks in German workers' autobiographies from the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Industrialization brought about quick changes for workers both in the workplace and in their wider socioeconomic and political environment. Therefore they preserved traditional beliefs and attitudes toward their milieu. With regard to health and illness, these traditional beliefs, drawn from their autobiographies, are illustrated. With time, panel doctors became accepted by workers. Social insurance gave workers access to physicians. Workers did not simply or tacitly accept their medicalization, nor did they oppose the extension of the social power of physicians. They construed health risks as part of their milieu, and not as the result of social changes taking place in all spheres.
