Health and Political Engagement
Social scientists have only recently begun to explore the link between health and political engagement. Understanding this relationship is vitally important from both a scholarly and a policy-making perspective.
This book is the first to offer a comprehensive account of health and political engagement. Using both individual-level and country-level data drawn from the European Social Survey, World Values Survey and new Finnish survey data, it provides an extensive analysis of how health and political engagement are connected. It measures the impact of various health factors on a wide range of forms of political engagement and attitudes and helps shed light on the mechanisms behind the interaction between health and political engagement.
This text is of key interest scholars, students and policy-makers in health, politics, and democracy, and more broadly in the social and health and medical sciences.

Guide
This book is the product of the research project Health and Political Engagement, financed by the Academy of Finland between 2013 and 2017 (project numbers 266844 and 273433). The project has been led by Mikko Mattila, and the other authors of this book have formed the core of the research team.
When preparing the grant application for the project and writing the first manuscripts on health and political engagement in 2012, a new wave of studies on the subject had recently been published. An increasing number of political scientists started turning to personal health for a fresh perspective on the determinants of political engagement. In this book, we offer a comprehensive account on the subject.
During multiple conversations, both within our group and with colleagues home and abroad, we gained a mutual understanding on how to participate in the ongoing scholarly debate. First and foremost, we felt there was a need in the literature for a presentation of different aspects in the relationship between personal health and political engagement. Journal articles alone would not be enough, because they are inevitably short and do not allow the authors to consider more than only a few issues at a time.
So writing a book that would discuss various aspects of both health and engagement from different theoretical angles seemed like a good idea. As in every project, many other actors play an important role besides the authors. We thank the Academy of Finland and the Finnish Cultural Foundation for financing our project. Hannu Lahtinen, Pekka Martikainen, Achillefs Papageorgiou and Reijo Sund from the University of Helsinki were invaluable partners in planning the survey used in this book and developing ideas through collaboration in authoring various articles. Andr Blais from Universit de Montral and Elisabeth Gidengil and Dietlind Stolle from McGill University have been involved in many ways, for which we like to express our gratitude. Christopher Ojeda, Julie Pacheco and Lisa Schur have also offered their expertise on various occasions. Henrik Oscarsson from the University of Gothenburg hosted Lauri Rapelis visit, during which also Elina Lindgren, Mikael Persson and Maria Solevid kindly offered their comments on our theoretical framework. We thank you all!
