POLT 372 - Health Law and Politics

FC SSCI WADV
4 credits
There is no set of legal issues more bound up with underlying social, cultural, and political currents than health law. A principal aim of this course is to give students an appreciation of how these dynamics have influenced law in the health care context, examining such topics as the Affordable Care Act, Medicare, Medicaid, abortion, and tobacco regulation, with readings drawn from court cases and secondary analyses. The course will culminate in the crafting of a health care policy brief.
