Abstract:
This is an inter-disciplinary argument for a moral entitlement to a capability to be healthy. Motivated by the goal to make a human right to health intelligible and justifiable, the thesis extends the capability approach, advocated by Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum, to the theory and practice of the human health sciences. Moral claims related to human health are considered at the level of ethical theory, or a level of abstraction where principles of social justice that determine the purpose, form, and scope of basic social institutions are proposed, evaluated, and justified.

Social inequalities in health remain a major social issue globally. One possible explanation of health inequality is health selection: in other words people with poor health move down the social hierarchy. This study started with the conceptual distinction between two types of health selection studies. Type I health selection study (the presence of health selection) examines the impact of poor health on the subsequent social mobility. On the contrary, type II study (the contribution of health selection to social inequalities in health) examines whether health selection changes social inequalit
