This is an interdisciplinary textbook that examines the relationship between globalization and social, political, economic, and environmental health determinants. This new edition of Global Health Governance and Policy: An Introduction provides a unique insight into the global systems and processes that ultimately affect peoples' health.
Comprehensive and far-reaching, the book offers a concise overview of the structure, functioning, and the role of the main governmental, intergovernmental, hybrid and non-state transnational actors, analyzing how they shape health policy and governance across the globe. Updated to reflect important changes since the COVID-19 pandemic, this second edition expands the analysis of specific health issues of global relevance, such as ecosystemic challenges, the global transformation of the food-system, the spread of infectious diseases, the tobacco and substance abuse epidemic, human migration, the increasing levels of social and economic inequality, the global financial crisis, and trade and access to drugs. It looks in further depth into digital health and the rise of artificial intelligence, the geopolitical impact of regional conflicts, and the challenge of infodemics.
Providing an overview of health systems in the global landscape, global health financing, and career opportunities in global health, this fascinating textbook is as an essential reading for students of all levels and professionals from a variety of disciplines with and interest in global health.
