近 40 年来，医学化理论一直是医学社会学或健康与疾病社会学的核心（Zola 1972；Freidson 1970），并且对于医学人类学（Hogle 2002；Lock 2001、2004）、医学史（Nye 2003；Siding 2004）以及医学本身（Chervenak 和 McCullough）也至关重要。 2005）、生物伦理学（Bergeron 2007）等等。仍然强有力的医学化论点是，西方医学或科学医学的合法管辖权开始扩大，通过重新定义或重建人类生活的新领域（例如酗酒、吸毒成瘾和肥胖），将它们适当地归入医学（而不是法律、宗教等）领域（例如，Ballard和Elston 2005；Conrad 1992、2005、2007；Conrad和Schneider 1980a， b).
Medicalization theory has been at the heart of medical sociology or the sociology of health and illness for nearly 40 years (Zola 1972; Freidson 1970) and is also vital to medical anthropology (Hogle 2002; Lock 2001, 2004), the history of medicine (Nye 2003; Sinding 2004), medicine itself (Chervenak and McCullough 2005), bioethics (Bergeron 2007), and beyond. The still robust medicalization thesis is that the legitimate jurisdiction of Western or scientific medicine began expanding by including new domains of human life (such as alcoholism, drug addiction, and obesity) by redefining or reconstructing them as falling properly withinmedical(rather than legal, religious, etc.) domains (e.g., Ballard and Elston 2005; Conrad 1992, 2005, 2007; Conrad and Schneider 1980a, b).
