Health Communication for Social Justice: A Whole Person Activist Approach: Routledge Social Justice Communication Activism Series
Autor Vinita Agarwalen Limba Engleză Paperback – sep 2023
This book explores health inequities experienced by disadvantaged and marginalized populations and outlines the actions students can take to address these challenges. The book demonstrates how physical, mental, and emotional health is connected to equitable understandings of individual, community, and environmental health. It considers how social, interpersonal, and systemic factors such as personal relationships, language, literacy, religion, technology, and the environment affect health equity. To present strategies and invite action to support the goals of the whole person, social justice activist approach, the book provides contemporary examples, interviews with communication scholars, and case studies that examine local communities and the everyday contexts of health meaning making.
This textbook serves as a core or supplemental text for graduate and upper-level undergraduate courses in health communication.
Online resources include PowerPoint slides and an instructor manual containing sample syllabi, assignments, and test questions. They are available online at www.routledge.com/9781032081038.
