Review

The first social theory of global health is the unintended consequences of purposive (or social) action.

Second, is the social construction of reality. This theory holds that the real world, no matter its material basis, is also made over into socially and culturally legitimated ideas, practices, and things.

The third social theory is that of social suffering; that socioeconomic and sociopolitical forces can at times cause disease. Fourth, the concept of biopower; the way political governance increasingly exerted its effects via the control of bodies and populations.
