Understanding racial-ethnic and societal differentials in STI

by S.O. Aral

The author describes a new paradigm in epidemiology. This social epidemiology is concerned with the question: "Why are some societies healthy and others not?". The author describes a possible way in which relations among social determinants, their mechanisms of action, and their impact on STD morbidity may be conceptualised.
