(1) Regional: Latvia and postsocialist countries of Europe.
(2) Thematic:
Representations of mental

Dr Solange Davin
Final year M.A. (Sociology)
student at Concordia
University in Montreal. My
concentration is in Sociology
of Mental Health (Eating
Disorders-Anorexia). My
current research addresses
bio-medical and new public
health 'risk' discourses from a
feminist poststructuralist
standpoint. Using a discourse
analytic approach, I am
examining how these
dominant formations
discursively construct the
anorectic's 'illness'
experience, through an
analysis of individual
narratives on pro-anorexic
websites.
Television Studies, in
particular audience research
(I have carried out several
studies of viewers' responses
to medical narratives in
various television
programmes), the public
understanding of science,
sociology and anthropology of
health and illness, health
promotion, cross-cultural
issues and translation,
methodology, philosophy
(particularly philosophy of
science), sociology and
anthropology of tourism.
