Study Notes
The Politics of Health in the 18th Century
- State intervention in healthcare wasn't uniform; it emerged alongside a multitude of social concerns.
- Health wasn't perceived as a purely state issue.
- The problem of the health or illness of the entire population became a priority for the state but came in various forms.
- Shifting focus from assistance to health, healthcare shifted from being an aspect of assistance.
- This shift occurred gradually, with few instances of clear-cut delineation.
- Existing institutions for assisting the poor, like hospitals, handled both healthcare and other necessities.
- "Assistance" services addressed the "sick poor," encompassing various aspects like food, clothing, child care, education, and employment.
- Regulations for epidemics and quarantines were exceptions. They weren't linked organically to routine assistance.
- The 18th-century problematization of health politics didn't correlate directly with increased state intervention.
