Toward a Healthy Society
Angebote / Angebote:
Taking in the broad sweep of social policy in the last half-century, Fisk (philosophy, Indiana University) describes the shift from welfare toward competitiveness as a key factor in the rise of corporate care in the United States. He analyzes the failure of the Clinton health care plan and argues that its commitment to corporate health care was at odds with its reforming intent. He then proposes a national health insurance program funded by a progressive income tax. Blending philosophy, economics, and public policy analysis, Fisk also discusses the role of health care as a public good, and considers the relationship between health and environmental factors.
