Abstract

Anne Case and Angus Deaton in Deaths of Despair and the Future of Capitalism attribute much of the increase in white mortality in opioid overdose deaths to the US pharmaceutical industry and a failed US health care system. They extend human capital to health and economic progress outcomes unique to white US populations since the 1960s. Case and Deaton and Deaths of Despair add to this literature that links education, human capital, and white deaths of despair.
