Article review: Does exposure to democracy decrease health inequality?

Abstract

This study is recommended for public health and health policy decision-makers, researchers in health economics and the social sciences, as well as anyone interested in understanding the causes of health inequalities not only at the individual level, but also at the institutional and societal levels. It is well-suited for educational use because it clearly demonstrates why the choice of metrics affects the comparability of countries and how one can get closer to a causal understanding.
