Free Rider Problem
• If people are strongly committed to the norm of self interest then the fact that others cannot be excluded from social capital may be reason to withdraw from activities that create it

• Prescriptive

Things that are moral are universal
• If social capital is universalized then people must cultivate it impartially
• Impartiality overrides the dark side of social capital

Morality trumps the non moral
• If creating social capital is understood as morally obligatory, then it would trump mere self interest

Third Generation Rights
• Third generation rights…are predicated essentially on the notion of solidarity among people. Such rights, in that they reflect a particularly human conception of community life, can as a result, be achieved only through the joint efforts of all those representing the social interests involved. UNESCO Paris December 29,1978

Public Health
• The public’s health can be achieved only through collective action, not through individual endeavor. Acting alone, persons of means may procure personal medical services and many of the necessities of living. Yet no single individual, or group, can assure the conditions needed for health. Meaningful protection of…the population’s health requires communal effort.
The Future of the Public’s Health in the 21st Century, 1988

Health as a Solidarity Right
• Health depends on the social determinants and on state protection
• The right to health would impose obligations on many entities: nations, pharmaceutical companies, transnational organizations, civil society, community, individuals, and philanthropists
• As a solidarity right we would need to enable solidarity through social capital

Policy
• Inclusive Immigration policy – healthcare and education for immigrants
• Improved mental health care – for global health
• Minimize the medical brain drain through international policy
• Philanthropy for health, including global health could be incentivized with tax deductions
