Abstract:
This book provides a qualitative account of working conditions within the contemporary service economy. As the largest employer in the modern labour market, investigating its realities demonstrates a number of problematic issues. The quest for profitability, efficiency and customer satisfaction drive a number of practices that can be interpreted from a social harm perspective. The use of zero-hours contracts, temporary work agencies, just-in-time management, lean working, and emotional labour, underpinned by targets and performance management reflect the imperatives of capital and the requirement for profitability. In relation to the employees who work in such precarious forms of employment, a number of harms appear. The ‘Victorian’ working conditions noted at individual operators such as Sports Direct are not anomalies but instead represent the normal functioning of the sector. In considering work from a social harm perspective, the book offers a unique contribution to the sociology of work and criminological or social harm studies. The social harm consideration of systemic violence is extended by an ultra-realist perspective that accounts for the symbolic violence of ideology and the problematic subjectivities willing to inflict harm on others. In its conclusions, the book asks for a consideration of the role of ideology and political economy in debates which seek to fix the harms of work.

Abstract:
Harms of medical interventions are systematically underestimated in clinical research. Numerous factors—conceptual, methodological, and social—contribute to this underestimation. This chapter articulates the depth of such underestimation by describing these factors at the various stages of clinical research. This includes the ways harms are operationalized in research, the way trials are designed such that they are sensitive to detecting possible benefits of interventions but insensitive to detecting harms, and the secrecy with which the resulting evidence is shrouded. The net effect of these conceptual, methodological, and social factors is that our available medical interventions appear to be safer than they truly are. Medical research is tuned to overestimate benefits and underestimate harms of medical interventions.

Abstract:
Five types of morbidity and mortality have been identified as the main health expressions of health harm associated with illicit drug use: 1) overdose; 2) other injury; 3) non-communicable physical disease; 4) mental disorders; and 5) infectious disease. Burden of disease estimates combining years of life lost due to premature mortality and disability indicate that illicit drugs ranked eighth among causes of disease, death, and disability in developed regions of the world. Opioids, cocaine, and amphetamines entail greater risks, especially when they are injected. Many harmful consequences are not completely intrinsic to the properties of the drug, but instead are associated with the physical and social environment in which drug use takes place. These epidemiological considerations need to be taken into account in the allocation of resources for prevention programmes, treatment, and social services.

Abstract:
We all know that speech is harmful but we need to be as clear as possible about what the harms are and how the speech in question brings about those harms. Clarity on these two points is important for jurisprudential reasons. It is also important for social, political, and moral reasons. Just Words identifies a previously overlooked mechanism by which speech constitutes, rather than merely causes, harm. Speech constitutes harm when it enacts a norm that prescribes that harm (so that following the norm brings about the harm). Just Words argues that there is a ubiquitous but hidden way that speech enacts norms thereby highlighting important but previously overlooked constitutive connections between speech and harm. The investigation begins in the kinematics of conversation where it is argued that conversational contributions (surreptitiously but routinely) enact highly localized norms for the very conversation to which they contribute. It is then argued that the phenomenon generalizes to extra-conversational social practices. Just Words explores many categories of speech including sexist remarks, racist hate speech, pornography, verbal triggers for stereotype threat, micro-aggressions, political dog whistles, SLAM poetry, and even the hanging of posters. It also explores a variety of harms including oppression, subordination, discrimination, domination, harassment, and marginalization. In addition to exploring how speech enacts such harms, Just Words also explores ways to remedy those harms.

Abstract:
This chapter considers whether corporate social responsibility (CSR) across ‘addictive industries’ is a vehicle for corporations to make a positive contribution to the health and welfare of consumers, and in turn, to society, or is a fig leaf used as part of wider corporate strategy. The chapter argues that CSR is used to promote ineffective actions by corporations in responding to the health harms of their products, while simultaneously undermining effective statutory action. Examples of CSR by the tobacco, alcohol, and gambling industries are used to examine these activities within the context of strategic corporate activity. We argue that CSR should be viewed critically and that its strategic deployment should be regarded as strands of marketing and lobbying rather than as corporate altruism. Despite many claims, CSR does not contribute positively to reducing harm associated with addictive products and services: our analysis suggests that this was never the intention.

Abstract:
Harm reduction is defined as a set of policies, programs, and practices aimed at reducing the negative health, social, and economic consequences associated with various behaviors. Although classically applied to the treatment of substance use disorders, its scope has broadened over time to include high-risk sexual activity, nonadherence to treatment, and other behaviors that may lead to negative consequences. In addition to providing relevant historical context for scenarios encountered, this chapter uses a case to demonstrate how a provider might take a nonjudgmental and humanistic approach to identifying maladaptive behaviors and apply evidence-based, realistic interventions to reduce associated harms. Specific topics discussed include opioid use disorder, tobacco use disorder, female sex work, and nonadherence to psychotropic medications.

Abstract:
Qualitative research is uniquely positioned to advance understanding of the role of social and structural factors in shaping drug use and drug-related harms in prison settings and following release. This chapter critically reviews the qualitative literature examining drug use within the prison risk environment and following release, while identifying research gaps and directions for future inquiry. The extant literature has documented: (1) how drug use in prisons is shaped by which drugs are available, their pharmacological effects, and correctional policies; (2) how injection-related risk and syringe sharing are shaped by social and structural forces within prisons (including policies restricting syringe access) which increase the potential for drug-related harm; (3) how withdrawal and detoxification experiences in custody both foster participation in high-risk injecting practices (eg, syringe-sharing) and facilitate injection cessation and drug abstinence; (4) how inmates and staff view prison-based methadone maintenance therapy, the experiences of those receiving treatment, and barriers to scaling up methadone programs; and, (5) how transitions from prison to community shape health access, harms, and drug use patterns. By documenting prisoners’ drug-related experiences, and situating these experiences within their social, structural, and environmental contexts, these studies have generated insights beyond what is possible using other research approaches. In doing so, they have identified features of prison and post-release risk environments amenable to modification. There is an urgent need to scale up qualitative studies of prison and post-release risk environments, to better inform targeted public health interventions. Emerging interventions, including prison-based syringe exchange, should similarly be examined using qualitative approaches to more fully document their potential impacts on drug-related risks and harms.

Abstract:
People with ALS may feel lonely, isolated, and bereft of information. Although professionals provide support, their time is in short supply and patients only see them periodically. For many decades there has been a tradition of face-to-face support groups to offer help to patients and caregivers in their local communities, but these have limitations. In recent years a new form of community has arisen, the online community. A relatively small evidence base suggests they may help patients and caregivers to be better informed, receive psychosocial support, and regain a peer network even as their ability to communicate and be physically active in the world diminishes. There are risks, however, such as misinformation, vulnerability to scams, and harms that might arise from becoming too involved in the disease at the exclusion of other facets of their lives. As mainstream social networks such as Facebook become dominant, the landscape will evolve rapidly.

Full text
Abstract:
The increasing recognition of addiction as a brain disease promises to significantly improve clinical treatment, reduce the stigma and discrimination aimed at people with an addiction, increase treatment funding and access, and discourage the use of punitive responses. This chapter argues that the brain disease model of addiction is not supported by the evidence sought in laboratories worldwide, and has failed to provide the clinical, social, and public policy benefits espoused by its proponents. Treating addiction solely as a brain disease may in fact reduce treatment-seeking, increase stigma, and focus attention on the medical treatment of addiction at the expense of more broadly effective public health policies that reduce the harms of drug use. The neuroscience research of addiction needs to be framed in a way that both accurately reflects the impact of drug use on the brain and communicated in a way that realizes the clinical and social benefits while eschewing avoidable harms.
