The processes leading to doctors becomming professional were not until recently compared on an international scale. There is, however, still no such comparison for doctors practicing alternative medicine. The national homoeopathic doctors' association of Germany and that of the United states of America are taken here as examples to examine the similarities and differences on the road to recognition and influence. The respective institutional frameworks of these two medical markets have a considerable effect on the possibilities of homeopathy and for those practicing homeopathy to organize themselves as a recognized profession.

This is a study of the connection between pain and masculinity, taking the autobiography of the Russian landowner and officer Andrei Bolotov (1738-1795) as its example. In Bolotov's account less importance is attributed to the topic of physical pain than to psychological pain, which is spoken of clearly. Other types of physical experience are constructed analogous to the experience of pain. His childhood phase reveals a socialisation which prepares for the ambivalent pattern of suppression of pain, considered manly and soldierly, and its simultaneous articulation. This is reconstructed as being an important component in the construction of masculinity. Ways of dealing with pain specific to the experience of this Russian officer are made evident.
