EBOOK Social Movements and the Transformation of American Health Care
Opis
This is the first collection of essays to examine dynamics of change in health care institutions through the lens of contemporary theory and research on collective action. Bringing together scholars from medicine, health management and policy, history, sociology, and political science, the book conceptualizes the American health care system as being organized around multiple institutions-including the state, biomedical fields, professions, and health delivery organizations. This book provides an unparalled view of the health care system and how it is affected by social movements.
