Case Study: In their review of the literature Braveman and colleagues (2010) introduce the concept of social determinants of health and how multiple social factors, such as one's income or neighborhood, shape and determine health outcomes.

Give the following questions and answers based on the following reading materials and submit more than 2 related references for each answer and references are most consistently cited.

Question 1) Briefly define, in your own words and drawing on the following reading materials, the social and political determinants of health.

Question 2) Use a concrete example to illustrate one of the pathways through which social [e.g., see p. 385-388 discussed by Braveman et al. (2010)] or political factors shape health and why acknowledging this pathway matters for public health policy.
