O artigo analisa na perspectiva de Wolf Lepenies as três dimensões – histórica, social e cognitiva – o campo da sociologia da saúde na construção de sua identidade. Entende-se que a construção de uma identidade não se encerra com as primeiras manifestações históricas, mas se consolida quando se institucionaliza e progressivamente se estrutura como campo do conhecimento criando suas formas próprias de expressão cognitiva. O texto está dividido em três partes: na primeira, são apresentados os precursores, destacando o papel desempenhado por alguns viajantes, naturalistas e estudiosos do folclore, seguidos pelos “médicos-cientistas sociais” e pelos primeiros cientistas sociais (1940-1969); na segunda, aspectos da consolidação das ciências sociais em saúde – dois momentos: os anos 70 e os anos 80; na terceira parte, de forma geral, são abordados os temas tratados pelo campo. Considera-se que, completadas as principais fases de sua disciplinarização há ainda a necessidade de que se estruturem os canais para a formação das novas gerações de cientistas sociais em saúde, se desenvolvam meios de divulgação da produção científica e se aprofundem e se institucionalizem as relações, de um lado, com as matrizes sociológicas e de outro com o campo da saúde.
