SUMMARY:[Entfällt] Health inequalities in Europe: Why so persistent?
DESCRIPTION:Inequalities in health between people with lower and higher soc
 ioeconomic status are found all over the world, even in European countries 
 with highly developed welfare systems. These inequalities are very large, a
 nd show no clear tendency of narrowing. But why do poor people continue to 
 live in worse health and tend to die earlier? In his presentation, Johan P.
  Mackenbach will show the results of a series of comparative studies of hea
 lth inequalities in 20 European countries, which help identify the factors 
 determining the magnitude of health inequalities while offering plausible r
 easons for why they persist. His presentation will draw on his recent book 
 ‘Health Inequalities: Persistence and change in European welfare states’ pu
 blished last September by Oxford University Press.\n\nSpeaker: Johan P. Mac
