Welfare States and Health Inequalities
While much research points to the importance of a range of welfare state policies to reduce inequalities in health, the growing literature in this field is full of mixed and contradictory results. In this paper, we provide a brief discussion about the different conceptual and methodological approaches used in comparative research on the relationship between welfare policies and health. Against a theoretical discussion of possible linkages among o…
Stability and variability in income position over time
It was shown that income changes and the time dimension of income are important for self-rated health. Self-rated health responds to decreases in absolute income and lowered rank position in the income distribution to a greater extent than to income gains over time. Lagged lower income position and its associations with health suggest that socio-economic disadvantages accumulate over time
Rising inequality in mortality among working-age men and women in Sweden
BACKGROUND: In the past two decades, health inequality has persisted or increased in states with comprehensive welfare. METHODS: We conducted a national registry-based repeated cohort study with a 3-year follow-up between 1990 and 2007 in Sweden. Information on all-cause mortality in all working-age Swedish men and women aged between 30 and 64 years was collected. Data were subjected to temporal trend analysis using joinpoint regression to statis…
Understanding the role of welfare state characteristics for health and inequalities – an analytical review
Relative deprivation and mortality – a longitudinal study in a Swedish population of 4,7 million, 1990–2006
Relative deprivation, based on social comparisons of income, is significantly associated with premature mortality in Sweden, over and above the effect of absolute income. Also, it was found to be more important among men, but weak among the poorest

The role of welfare state principles and generosity in social policy programmes for public health
Comparison or consumption? Distinguishing between different effects of income on health in Nordic welfare states
Exploring relative deprivation
Analysing changes of health inequalities in the Nordic welfare states
The role of income differences in explaining social inequalities in self rated health in Sweden and Britain
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To analyse to what extent differences in income, using two distinct measures-as distribution across quintiles and poverty-explain social inequalities in self rated health, for men and women, in Sweden and Britain. DESIGN: Series of cross sectional surveys, the Swedish Survey of Living Conditions (ULF) and the British General Household Survey (GHS), during the period 1992-95. PARTICIPANTS AND SETTING: Swedish and British men and w…
