| american university health portal: Not All In Tiffany D. Joseph, 2025-03-11 Examines how health policy shifts fail to fully serve immigrant communities due to structural racism and anti-immigrant rhetoric and enforcement measures. Despite progressive policy strides in health care reform, immigrant communities continue to experience stark disparities across the United States. In Not All In, Tiffany D. Joseph exposes the insidious contradiction of Massachusetts' advanced health care system and the exclusionary experiences of its immigrant communities. Joseph illustrates how patients' race, ethnicity, and legal status determine their access to health coverage and care services, revealing a disturbing paradox where policy advances and individual experiences drastically diverge. Examining Boston's Brazilian, Dominican, and Salvadoran communities, this book provides an exhaustive analysis spanning nearly a decade to highlight the profound impacts of the Affordable Care Act and subsequent policy shifts on these marginalized groups. Not All In is a critical examination of the systemic barriers that perpetuate health care disparities. Joseph challenges readers to confront the uncomfortable truths about racialized legal status and its profound implications on health care access. This essential book illuminates the complexities of policy implementation and advocates for more inclusive reforms that genuinely cater to all. Urging policymakers, health care providers, and activists to rethink strategies that bridge the gap between legislation and life, this book reminds us that in the realm of health care, being progressive is not synonymous with inclusivity. |

| american university health portal: Until We're Seen Joseph Entin, Jeanne Theoharis, 2024-08-20 Firsthand accounts of COVID-19’s devastating effects on working-class communities of color The first months of the COVID-19 pandemic were filled with talk of heroes, the frontline workers who kept the country functioning. “And when they write those history books, the heroes of the battle will be the hardworking families of New York,” Governor Andrew Cuomo trumpeted on Labor Day 2020. But what if those heroes, those essential workers and their families, wrote the book themselves? In Until We’re Seen, the heroes write their own stories. Through firsthand accounts by college students at Brooklyn College and California State University Los Angeles, Until We’re Seen chronicles COVID-19’s devastating, disproportionate effects on working-class communities of color, even as the United States has declared the pandemic over and looks away from its impacts. Very few of these students and their families had the luxury of laboring from home; if they were able to keep their jobs, they took subways and buses, and they worked. They drove delivery trucks, worked in private homes, cooked food in restaurants for people to pick up, worked as EMTs, and did construction. They couldn’t escape to second homes; if anything, more people moved in, as families were forced to consolidate to save money. Together, the accounts in this book show that the COVID-19 pandemic did discriminate, following the race and class fissures endemic to US society. But if these are tales of hardship, they are also love stories—of students’ families, biological and chosen—and of the deep resolve, mundane carework, and herculean efforts such love entails. Recounting 2020–2022 through the experiences of predominantly young, working-class immigrants and people of color living in the first two major US COVID-19 epicenters, Until We’re Seen spotlights previously untold stories of the pandemic in New York, Los Angeles, and the nation as a whole. |
| american university health portal: Communities in Action National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, Health and Medicine Division, Board on Population Health and Public Health Practice, Committee on Community-Based Solutions to Promote Health Equity in the United States, 2017-03-27 In the United States, some populations suffer from far greater disparities in health than others. Those disparities are caused not only by fundamental differences in health status across segments of the population, but also because of inequities in factors that impact health status, so-called determinants of health. Only part of an individual's health status depends on his or her behavior and choice; community-wide problems like poverty, unemployment, poor education, inadequate housing, poor public transportation, interpersonal violence, and decaying neighborhoods also contribute to health inequities, as well as the historic and ongoing interplay of structures, policies, and norms that shape lives. When these factors are not optimal in a community, it does not mean they are intractable: such inequities can be mitigated by social policies that can shape health in powerful ways. Communities in Action: Pathways to Health Equity seeks to delineate the causes of and the solutions to health inequities in the United States. This report focuses on what communities can do to promote health equity, what actions are needed by the many and varied stakeholders that are part of communities or support them, as well as the root causes and structural barriers that need to be overcome. |

| american university health portal: Engagement with the private sector in health for the COVID-19 response World Health Organization, 2023-12-15 This paper provides comparative analysis on private sector engagement for COVID-19 response in the Eastern Mediterranean region (EMR) with a specific focus on private sector health service delivery. The intention of this paper is to distil behaviours and derive lessons to strengthen governance of health systems, inclusive of the private sector in health. The study methodology included a literature review of articles published between January 2020 and March 2022 supplemented by key informant interviews with government, academic, development partner and private sector representatives. The comparative analysis highlights a range of practice in response to COVID-19. Practice built upon available institutional arrangements, organisational structures, mechanisms for coordination and information exchange. The degree to which this was effective varied and is reflective of the attributes of EMR contexts to manage change and secure essential public health functions. WHO seeks to support Member States with a practice-based and action-oriented approach to governance of the private sector in health, one that is grounded in context. |

| american university health portal: Debating the Obama Presidency Steven E. Schier, 2016-09-22 This is the first book to present both the arguments for and against Barack Obama’s presidency and its policies. In it, prominent political scientists and Washington think tank scholars address Obama’s domestic, economic and foreign policies and his political legacy. Contrasting perspectives assess the consequences of the large aspirations of the Obama presidency and the political and policy challenges Obama encountered in the pursuit of those aspirations. Barack Obama’s project in the White House involved installing lasting changes in national policy and politics. Institutionally, the Obama administration sought to preserve control of Congress through maintenance of reliable partisan Democratic majorities, and enhance influence over the federal courts through a steady stream of liberal judicial appointees. The administration sought increased autonomy over the executive branch by a reorganizations spawned by a national economic crisis and an ambitious domestic policy agenda. Politically, the Obama administration sought the entrenchment of consistent Democratic electoral majorities. Such large ambitions have generated enduring controversies surrounding his presidency, controversies that receive a full airing and debate in this volume. Contributions by Alan I.

| american university health portal: Caste, COVID-19, and Inequalities of Care Sanghmitra S. Acharya, Stephen Christopher, 2022-03-01 This book explores how social discrimination in South Asia contributes to health disparities and impedes well-being. Specifically, it addresses how marginalization shapes health outcomes, both under normal circumstances and specifically during the COVID-19 pandemic. Coming from diverse backgrounds and representing different academic disciplines, the authors have contributed a range of chapters drawing from quantitative and ethnographic material across South Asia. Chapters address reservation politics, tribal lifeways, Dalit exclusions from governmental institutions, Muslim ghettoization, gendered domestic violence, social determinants of health among migrant workers, and the pandemic fallout across South Asian society, among other subjects. Scholars draw on decades of experience and firsthand ethnographic fieldwork among affected communities. The chapters provide an innovative analysis, often in real time, of the human toll of casteism, classism, patriarchy, and religious intolerance—many set against the spectre of COVID-19. Many authors not only present social critiques but also offer specific policy recommendations. The book is of great interest to social scientists, public health practitioners, and policy advocates interested in addressing systemic inequalities and ensuring that future pandemics are not disproportionately felt by the most vulnerable. |

Dünya’da peşi sıra meydana gelen krizler, doğal afetler ve salgınlar, insanın ve toplumun her türlü riske karşı korunması gerektiği gerçeğini gözler önüne sermiştir. Kapitalizmin tüm hünerlerini sergilemeye çalıştığı bu yaşam döngüsünde, insan ve toplum refahı tesis edilmeden, kapitalizmin dahi varlığını sürdürmesi güçtür. Zira insana rağmen hiçbir sosyo-politiğin ve eko-politiğin sürdürülmesi mümkün değildir. 20. Yüzyılda başlayan “sosyal güvenlik endişesi”, 21. Yüzyılda artarak devam etmiştir. Modern devletler, sosyal güvenlik harcamalarını artırırken eş zamanlı olarak sosyal güvenliğin finansmanı sorunuyla karşı karşıya kalmışlardır. Bu kitapta, sosyal güvenlik sistemleri, sosyal güvenliği sağlamaya yönelik harcamalar ve özellikle sosyal güvenliğin finansmanı ile sürdürülebilirliği konuları araştırılmaya, ortaya konulmaya ve bu hususlara ilişkin çözümler sunulmaya gayret edilmiştir. |
