The ethical, institutional, political, and social aspects of health policy allow for important and surprisingly large differences among nations, even nations that are quite similar in other policy domains. This module uses health policy as a study in comparative politics. By examining health care systems and institutions across nations, and seeking to identify the reasons these systems and institutions differ, we will gain a fuller understanding of the causes and consequences of different policy choices in democracies.
