The health status of women is examined within the context of a global political economy. The authors present a beginning attempt to model some key macrolevel processes linked to the health of women. In particular, a structural modeling technique known as LVPLS (or "soft modeling") is used to empirically test one recent formulation of world-system theory. The findings give added emphasis to the importance of the larger economic forces that affect women's health.
在全球政治经济背景下审视女性的健康状况。作者初步尝试对一些与女性健康相关的关键宏观层面过程进行建模。具体而言,一种名为LVPLS(或“软建模”)的结构建模技术被用于实证检验世界体系理论的一种最新表述。研究结果进一步强调了影响女性健康的更大经济力量的重要性。
