Economic Development, Political-Economic System, and the Physical Quality of Life SHIRLEY CERESETO, PHD, AND HOWARD WAITZKIN, MD, PHD Abstract: This study compared capitalist and socialist countries in measures of the physical quality of life (PQL), <br />taking into account the level of economic development. The World Bank was the principal source of statistical data for 123 countries (97 per cent ofthe world's population). PQL variables included: 1) indicators of health, health services, and nutrition <br />(infant mortality rate, child death rate, life expectancy, population per physician, population per nursing person, and daily per capita calorie supply); 2) measures of education (adult literacy rate, enrollment in secondary education, and enrollment in <br />higher education); and 3) a composite PQL index. Capitalist countries fell across the entire range of economic development (measured by gross national product per capita), while the socialist countries appeared at the low-income, lower-middle-income, and <br />upper-middle-income levels. All PQL measures improved as eco- nomic development increased. In 28 of 30 comparisons between countries at similar levels of economic development, socialist coun- tries showed more favorable PQL outcomes. (Am J Public Health <br />1986; 76:661-666.)

A study in the American Journal of Public Health in 1986 found that on average, socialist countries outperformed capitalist countries in similar income categories on 9 out of 10 criteria related to physical quality of life.
