Produktinformationen zu „Lifestyle Economics “
Lifestyle Economics explores several links between health, lifestyle, and the
labor market. Special emphasis is given to health equality, obesity, and
alcohol problems. This is done in the context of Iceland, which is important
and interesting in an international context. The Icelandic government takes financial
responsibility for the medical-care demands of its citizens, to the
point where non-governmental funding of such consumption has been negligible
for several decades. The same holds true for disability-related income replacements.
With one of the most expensive centralized medical systems in
the world it is important to see if the equalitarian goals of this system have
been effectively attained. Thus, this book should be interesting for researchers,
policy makers and the interested public alike.
