The Political and Social Contexts of Health : Politics of Sex in Medicine, Hardback Book

The Political and Social Contexts of Health : Politics of Sex in Medicine Hardback

Edited by Vicente Navarro

Hardback

Description

This analysis of the political and social forces that shape the well-being and quality of life of populations in developed capitalist countries is written by scholars based in several different countries.

The book shows how the varying political traditions in the developed world - social democratic, Christian democratic, conservative, and liberal traditions - have affected populations' health and quality of life in the western democracies.

The contributors also analyze the public and social policies derived from each of these political traditions that have affected levels of social inequality (through changes in the welfare states and labor markets) and on health and quality of life.
