Health and the Income Inequality Hypothesis: A Doctrine in Search of Data Год выпуска: 0Автор: Nick Eberstadt, Sally SatelИздательство: Страниц: 0ISBN: 0844771694Описание Few would take exception to the proposition that an improvement in the material well-being of the poor would enhance not only their living standards but their health as well. A number of influential recent studies, however, purport to show that inequality in income--not poverty per se--is bad for people's health. This "inequality hypothesis" is meant to apply to everyone, regardless of wealth or social standing, and predicts that the risk of illness depends upon whether one lives in a society that is stratified or egalitarian. Thus, according to this hypothesis, while the poor may suffer the most from inequality, the better off and even the rich suffer as well. The enthusiasm many researchers and observers feel for this theory goes well beyond what might be justified by the evidence. The inequality hypothesis too often relies upon limited or unrepresentative data, hazily expounded causality, elementary econometric fallacies, and results that cannot be replicated. A very...

Вера, 14.04 Я просто еще раз хочу вас отблагодарить за вашу помощь. Простите, если я написала вам грубо в предыдущих письмах. Я очень взволнована, все упирается во время и т.к. я ответственно отношусь к образованию, по этому предмету немножко отстаю и это заставляет меня переживать. Я знаю, что вы профессионал своего дела и я уверена, что вы ответственно относитесь к этому тоже. Мне посоветовали Вас, как хорошего специалиста, поэтому я бы хотела исчерпать недопонимания для дальнейшего сотрудничества с Вами. Спасибо еще раз.
