Structural Violence, as described by Arthur Kleinman
Das, Lock, and Kleinman write that “social suffering results from what political, economic, and institutional power does to people and, reciprocally, from how these forms of power themselves influence responses to social problems.” (Kleinman et al. 1997, p. ix). That is to say, social forces – such as economic and political arrangements, social institutions and relationships, and culture – can cause pain and suffering. In turn, society and its institutions can cause or worsen health and social problems, even in the name of health and welfare. Being discriminated against on the basis of skin color, living in poverty, or being incarcerated are all examples of social suffering.
