摘要

社会解剖以一组人的死亡为出发点，然后批判性和系统地检查社会和政治条件，以解释这些死亡，并产生意识和政策变化。在将社会尸检与其他解释过量死亡和过早死亡的方法区分开来之后，我们描述了社会尸检的三个核心方法原则:将社会相关性作为尸检死亡样本的指导标准，将死亡模式嵌入社会世界，以及关注上下文因果关系和社会机制。我们提供了三个当代的过度死亡案例，需要进行社会解剖:学校枪击事件、黑人死于警察之手，以及移民边境死亡。

The Social Autopsy

The social autopsy takes the death of a set of individuals as its starting point and then critically and systematically examines social and political conditions to explain these deaths and generate awareness and policy change. After distinguishing the social autopsy from other means to explain excess and premature deaths, we delineate three core methodological principles of the social autopsy: social relevance as a guiding criterion to sample the deaths to be autopsied, embedding the patterning of deaths in social worlds, and a focus on contextual causality and social mechanisms. We provide three contemporary examples of excess deaths calling out for social autopsies: school shootings, Black deaths at the hands of police, and migrant border deaths.

期刊介绍： Sociological Methods & Research is a quarterly journal devoted to sociology as a cumulative empirical science. The objectives of SMR are multiple, but emphasis is placed on articles that advance the understanding of the field through systematic presentations that clarify methodological problems and assist in ordering the known facts in an area. Review articles will be published, particularly those that emphasize a critical analysis of the status of the arts, but original presentations that are broadly based and provide new research will also be published. Intrinsically, SMR is viewed as substantive journal but one that is highly focused on the assessment of the scientific status of sociology. The scope is broad and flexible, and authors are invited to correspond with the editors about the appropriateness of their articles.
