Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
This article examines the changing role of medicine in the early workers' compensation system by using an approach derived in part from Marx's work. It looks at the increasing importance of medicine in mediating class conflict over transforming work-related injuries into money, meaning, and medical care under the new system. The concept of 'medico-legalization' is developed to help explain some of these changes. |
