“…An expert therefore, as an alternative concept to Peterson's cultural omnivore, is someone who, thanks to the possession of competences is able to express positive or negative judgment in regards to a broad range of musical works.

Educational attainment was measured using the internationally comparable CASMIN scale (Brauns et al 2003), in which we differentiated groups with primary, secondary and tertiary educational attainment (38.2%, 38.4% and 23.3% of the study sample, respectively).…”

Objectives:Unemployment is a major determinant of health. We investigate whether health inequalities with regards to employment status have changed in Germany. Methods:We used longitudinal data for the years 1994 to 2008 from a representative panel study (GSOEP). The sample consisted of respondents aged 30 to 59 years (15 waves, 21,329 persons, 129,526 observations). We analyzed trends and determinants of self-rated health status by employment status using logistic regression and fixedeffects logistic panel models. Results:Health inequalities by employment status increased significantly by 72% in men and by 16% in women after controlling covariates. The trends were partly mediated by consequences of unemployment such as income loss, income poverty, life satisfaction and economic sorrows. Using regression models for panel data we confirmed that the observed increases in health inequalities at the population level also exist at the individual level. Discussion:Altogether, our findings indicate that health inequalities with regards to employment status increased among men between 1994 und 2008. This observation is in line with increasing income inequalities in Germany and with increasing health inequalities in other European countries.

“…High-, medium-and minimum-skilled cohorts were created using the Comparative Analysis of Social Mobility in Industrial Nations (CASMIN) classification of education, which categorizes skill level by hierarchy (length, quality, and value of education) and skill orientation (vocational versus general) (15). The relationship between current unemployment and mortality was examined using discrete-time survival analysis and adjusted for a range of demographic, socioeconomic, and health characteristics.…”

Analyses in comparative political economy have the potential to contribute to understanding health inequalities within and between societies. This article uses a varieties of capitalism approach that groups high-income countries into coordinated market economies (CME) and liberal market economies (LME) with different labor market institutions and degrees of employment and unemployment protection that may give rise to or mediate work-related health inequalities. We illustrate this approach by presenting two longitudinal comparative studies of unemployment and health in Germany and the United States, an archetypical CME and LME. We find large differences in the relationship between unemployment and health across labor-market and institutional contexts, and these also vary by educational status. Unemployed Americans, especially of low education or not in receipt of unemployment benefits, have the poorest health outcomes. We argue for the development of a broader comparative research agenda on work-related health inequalities that incorporates life course perspectives.
