Aim & Scope

The RBC Journal of Sociology of Health and Illness aims to advance knowledge and understanding of the social dimensions of health, illness, and healthcare. The journal publishes original research, theoretical studies, reviews, and critical analyses that explore the ways in which social, cultural, economic, and political factors shape health outcomes and healthcare experiences. It seeks to foster interdisciplinary dialogue among sociologists, public health professionals, policymakers, and practitioners, encouraging research that is methodologically rigorous, ethically sound, and socially relevant. By providing a platform for high-quality scholarship, the journal contributes to evidence-based policy, informed practice, and the broader understanding of health inequalities, social determinants of health, and the complex interactions between society and wellbeing.
