WiSe 16/17: Welfare State in a Globalized World

Betsy Leimbigler

Comments

The main focus of this course is to give an in-depth analysis of the United States’ health care system within the welfare state, and highlight the process of issue framing and discourse analysis in relation to the development of health care reform. The course will link the challenges facing the American welfare state with international norms related to global health and the advancement of human rights, highlighting the concept of the “globalized world.” By first examining the broader international ideas and ideals underpinning welfare states, we look at the development and problematization of welfare and health care in the US. This includes the political, racial and rights-related movements to advance health care. Welfare state studies also have a focus on language, and the discursive devices and framing of issues to the broader public. Students will be able to gain a better understanding of discourse analysis, issue framing, and the link between global, institutional norms and domestic welfare policy in the US. close
