Theoretical Underpinnings of the Political Priorities of Municipal Healthcare Services in Norway

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This paper aims to discuss the current criteria for municipal priorities in municipal healthcare services in Norway in light of major theories from political philosophy on social justice, such as John Rawlsʼs theory of justice and utilitarianism. Our first goal is to show that perspectives from political philosophy could prove useful for increasing our understanding of the current priority-setting criteria in municipal healthcare services.
