This course is designed to help you obtain comprehensive and critical knowledge of the relationship between mental health and society. Readings and lectures deal with a variety of theories and empirical research of sociology of mental health. In particular, this course examines a range of topics related to sociology of mental health from a private area of family and gender to a public area of work and policies. While the course materials draw mostly from sociological theory and research, we will also draw from the richness of other disciplines?especially psychological research on stress and mental health. This course will underscore the ways that social inequality manifests itself in the area of mental health, focusing on social patterns, processes, and outcomes, as well as the relevance of social contexts for contributing to disparities in mental health.
