Abstract

This research adopts an analytical spatial perspective to explain ethno-national health inequality between Palestinians and Jews in Israel. The work identifies the forces that instigated and maintained the spatial segregation of Palestinians and elaborates the role of segregation in generating health gaps between Palestinians and Jews. The analysis suggests a novel conceptualization of two types of segregation: (a) exclusion from the center and confinement to the periphery and (b) segregation within the geographic periphery. Using administrative data on COVID-19 incidence, hospitalization, and death and various health indicators for localities, I devise a decomposition method that evaluates the relative contribution of each type of segregation to the total health gap. The findings indicate that the segregation of Palestinians from the center and their confinement to peripheral regions are crucial determinants of their poor health outcomes and that the segregation of the Palestinian community within the geographic periphery also contributes to poorer health.

空间和民族健康不平等:以色列巴勒斯坦人和犹太人之间的健康和死亡率差距。
本研究采用空间分析视角来解释以色列巴勒斯坦人和犹太人之间的民族-国家健康不平等。这项工作确定了煽动和维持巴勒斯坦人空间隔离的力量,并阐述了隔离在造成巴勒斯坦人和犹太人之间健康差距方面的作用。分析提出了两种类型隔离的新概念:(a) 被排斥在中心地区之外,被限制在边缘地区;(b) 在地理边缘地区内的隔离。利用 COVID-19 发病率、住院和死亡的行政数据以及各地的各种健康指标,我设计了一种分解方法,以评估每种类型的隔离对总健康差距的相对贡献。研究结果表明,巴勒斯坦人与中心地带的隔离以及他们被限制在边缘地区,是他们健康状况较差的重要决定因素,而巴勒斯坦社区在地理边缘地区的隔离也是导致健康状况较差的原因之一。
