Economics & Human Biology ECONOMICS & HUMAN BIOLOGY AUTHOR INFORMATION PACK TABLE OF CONTENTS XXX . • Description p.1 • Impact Factor p.1 • Abstracting and Indexing p.2 • Editorial Board p.2 • Guide for Authors p.3 ISSN: 1570-677X DESCRIPTION . Economics and Human Biology is devoted to the exploration of the effect of socio-economic processes on human beings as biological organisms. Research covered in this (quarterly) interdisciplinary journal is not bound by temporal or geographic limitations. Themes include:The impact of socio-economic processes, such as industrialization, urbanization, agricultural policy, technological change and commercialization and the degree of penetration of the world food system on biological welfare and health outcomes.The effects of government intervention programs, as well as macroeconomic and public health policy on the human organism at either the individual or the population level.Feedback effects from human biological outcomes to economic growth at the national, regional and local levels insofar as healthier individuals invariably lead longer more creative and more productive lives, influencing thereby the course of economic development.The complex symbiotic relationship between such anthropometric indicators as weight, birth-weight, physical stature and the body-mass-index, as well as morbidity and mortality, on the one hand and socio-economic processes or events on the other. The conceptualization of health and health models in economic theory.The measurement of poverty, malnutrition and psychological deprivation and the role of health and income inequality in the persistence of poverty traps.The biological components of the quality of life: how well does the human organism itself thrive in its socio- economic and epidemiological environment.Health and economic systems; environment and health; health in the transition economies.Statistical, econometric, methodological and philosophical issues associated with the measurement and modeling of these relationships.Contributions in auxology, anthropometry, biocultural anthropology, demography, development economics, economic history, epidemiology, health economics, human biology, human nutrition, health sciences, medicine, physical anthropology, public health and sociology are welcomed.

To do this, bioarchaeologists follow two general rules of thumb. First, they contextualize human remains in physical space, cultural milieu, and pre-historic time. That is, skeletonized and mummified bodies are never examined without also considering their associated archaeological materials. Second, bioarchaeologists regard ancient bodies as bio-cultural phenomena. Human biology is impacted directly by culture, and vice versa. With these two ideas in hand, we will explore bioarchaeology’s history, development, major topical concerns, and debates. We will also engage critically with categories and assumptions about race, sex/gender, age, ethnicity, disease and disability, violence, and body parts. To conclude the semester, we will reflect upon bioarchaeology’s relevance in contemporary politics.

An inherent feature of drug control in many countries has been an excessive emphasis on punitive measures at the expense of public health.

The enacted U.S. reform could be described, extremely roughly, as Japanese pooling with Swiss and American problems at American prices. Its policies are distinctive, yet nevertheless somewhat similar to examples in other rich democracies, on two important dimensions: how risks are pooled and the amount of funds redistributed to subsidize care for people with lower incomes.

  • Critical Issues in Health Economics
    Critical Issues in Health Economics CRITICAL ISSUES IN HEALTH ECONOMICS B. J. Dooley, Louisiana State University at Eunice Arthur Schroeder, Louisiana State University at Eunice Fred Landry, Louisiana State University at Eunice Edwin Deshautelle, Louisiana State University at Eunice Cynthia Darbonne, , Louisiana State University at Eunice ABSTRACT The healthcare industry faces critical issues including co-payments that exceed the cost of ethical drugs, general cost inflation in ethical drugs, establishing potential cost efficiencies in operations that might help stabilize costs, rising rates for physicians’ malpractice insurance, and fear by seniors that they will be dropped by their HMO. Costs for both medical procedures and hospital stays have also escalated over the decade and are forecast to rise in 2003 and thereafter. It is imperative for individuals, organizations, healthcare providers, and pharmaceutical firms to examine their cost structures. There are no easy solutions that will solve all of the above problems. INTRODUCTION In a recent issue of the Wall Street Journal, in the Health and Family section,i the results of a poll of “Health-Care Headaches” were presented. They were very interesting and pointed out differences between perceptions of the general public and primary healthcare providers. The two groups tended to be concerned about substantially different issues. Some of their concerns do overlap. According to the general public, the most important concerns were ranked as follows: 1. Health-care costs – 38% 2. Prescription-drug costs – 31% 3. Corporate bureaucracy – 11% 4. Availability of care – 11% 5. Medical errors – 6% The poll included the most important concerns of physiciansii as follows: 1.

  • Economic Epidemiology in the Wake of Covid-19∗
    Economic epidemiology in the wake of Covid-19∗ David McAdamsy August 27, 2020 Abstract Infectious diseases, ideas, new products, and other \infectants" spread in epidemic fashion through social contact. The Covid-19 pandemic, the prolifer- ation of \fake news," and the rise of antibiotic resistance have thrust economic epidemiology into the forefront of public-policy debate and re-invigorated the field. Focusing for concreteness on disease-causing pathogens, this paper pro- vides a taxonomy of economic-epidemic models, emphasizing both the biology / immunology of the disease and the economics of the social context. An economic epidemic is one whose diffusion through the agent population is generated by agents' endogenous behavior. I highlight properties of the Nash-equilibrium epi- demic trajectory and discuss ways in which public-health authorities can change the game for the better, (i) by imposing restrictions on agent activity to reduce the harm done during a viral outbreak and (ii) by enabling diagnostic-informed interventions to slow or even reverse the rise of antibiotic resistance. Keywords: economic epidemic, epidemic limbo, Covid-19, lockdown, antibiotic resistance, diagnostics ∗When citing this paper, please use the following: McAdams D. 2021.

Summerhill, Chair The emergence of regional inequities and the genesis of modern economic growth in Brazil have remained shrouded by a dearth of historical evidence. Although quantitative scholars have revealed the efficacy of the First Republic (1889-1930) in fomenting economic progress, the extent to which Brazil’s early economic growth fostered improvements in health remains unclear. My dissertation fills this void in scholarship by relying on hitherto untapped archival sources with data on human stature—a reliable metric for health and nutritional status. Heights offer an excellent source of knowledge regarding human development for Brazil in the 1850-1950 period—an era of deep social, political, and economic transformations. My analysis centers heavily on a large (n≈17,000), geographically- comprehensive series compiled from military inscription files, supplemented by an ancillary dataset drawn from passport records (n≈6,000).
