Elizabeth Popp-Berman on How the U.S. Can Build a Just Political Economy for Health

In a special podcast episode, Health Affairs Scholar Associate Editor Loren Adler interviews Elizabeth Popp-Berman about the Health and Political Economy series of papers recently published in Health Affairs Scholar.

 

The series asks how might the U.S. build a more just and inclusive political economy for health rather than take the status quo for granted.

 

This paper collection was developed in partnership with the The New School’s Health and Political Economy Project (HPEP), a field catalyst initiative advancing a just and inclusive economy for health, and supported by the Commonwealth Fund.

Read the Collection:

• Health and political economy: building a new common sense in the United States
• Advancing a political economy approach to health using lessons from US antitrust and climate policy
• Reviving public provisioning in US health care
• The fundamental importance of social insurance for health equity
• Centering marginalized care: Home care cooperatives and system change
