Harvard Pop Center Social Demography Seminar: American exceptionalism, or Republican exceptionalism? A cross-national analysis of public opinion on health care

Sean Bock, PhD candidate in sociology, Harvard University, and Jason Beckfield, professor of sociology, Harvard University, and associate director, Harvard Center for Population and Development Studies, will present “American exceptionalism, or Republican exceptionalism? A cross-national analysis of public opinion on health care policy.” 

The Social Demography Seminar  (SDS) series at the Center for Population and Development Studies provides a lively forum for scholars from across the university to discuss in-progress social scientific and population research. Social demography includes work that uses demographic methods to describe and explain the distribution of social goods across populations. The series offers presentations on a wide variety of topics such as family, gender, race/ethnicity, population health—including mortality, morbidity, and functional health—inequality, immigration, fertility, and the institutional arrangements that shape and respond to population processes.
