Comparative Health Problems and Policies

Summary of Chapter 1: The Social Problems Process by Best (2013). This is reading material for week 1 of the course Comparative Health Problems and Policies at WUR, which is one of the compulsory courses in period 2 of the master MHS. I included an important figure from the book, which makes the summary just over 4 pages.

Before the first interactive lecture of the week, we had to prepare this self-study assignment about the mandatory literature. My answers to the questions are in bold, and the comments from the lecturer are in italics. Not all answers were elaborated on in the lecture itself, but when it was, I made it green when it was correct. Hopefully you can use this as an extension of your own ideas about the literature!

This document is a summary of the required literature and notes taken during the lectures (there are also some personal notes in it). Feel free to message me after purchasing if you would like the document in Word format too. I passed the course with an 8 studying this. Good luck!
