This course explores how and why socioeconomic policies (e.g., education, income/welfare, civil rights, macroeconomics/employment, housing/urban policies) may be as or more consequential for population health as “health” policies (i.e., health care and insurance policies) and the implications of this for formulating and evaluating both socioeconomic and health policies.
