[Social medicine in social work--a key for improving health-related social work].

The relation between social work and social medicine is the subject of this article. Social work is an independent discipline creating its own knowledge in scientific cooperation with other disciplines. Social Medicine is outlined with its special features as a field and as a medical discipline. The traditional relation between social work and the discipline of Social Medicine operates side by side. Since Social Medicine and social work refer to each other, new perspectives for the development of health-related social work arise. Social Medicine appeared in social work can help in elaborating a sociogenetic model of understanding health and illness as well as the development of sociotherapy in social work. Health-related social work will gain more significance in the treatment of health-related and disease-related questions.

Latin American social medicine and global social medicine.

A fundamental change in the theory underlying public health and medicine is needed. Latin American social medicine (LASM), originating in a region of the world that has been subjected to colonial and postcolonial influence, will be part of this change. To the extent that the social production of disease among people in other regions is a consequence of various large-scale forms of domination, LASM offers a relevant analysis, models of resistance, and exemplars of social medicine in practice. I draw upon LASM to examine the social production of disease in the Marshall Islands and Iraq. I suggest a basis for a global social medicine in the shared experience of suffering and describe implications for public health theory and practice.
