Abstract
Critical and creative work can and must be done to determine why injustice exists, including who gains and who loses and how it wreaks its woe, thereby generating knowledge for both rectifying harm and creating just and sustainable solutions. Critical research questions focus on: What is the evidence that social injustice harms health? What can be done to prevent this harm? There are four key reasons to develop a research agenda for social justice in public health: (1) ignorance forestalls action. (2) The “facts” never “speak for themselves.” (3) Specificity matters. (4) Research can exacerbate, and even generate, rather than help rectify social inequalities in health. This chapter discusses a proposal for a public health research agenda that advances issues of social justice and includes four components: theory, monitoring, etiology, and prevention. For each component, the author delineates broad principles and provides specific examples.
