Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Charts the History of the Relationship Between Ecological Thinking and Practices of Disease Control. Health security is inextricably linked to ecology. Among the most recent manifestations of this nexus are concerns over interspecies spillover scenarios, global microbial traffic, and environmental determinants of disease in the time of COVID-19. Ecologies of Disease includes contributions from history, sociology, human geography, cultural anthropology, and case studies from the late 18th century until our present and demonstrates how current modes of ecological reasoning resonate with historical responses to epidemic disease. Dealing with phenomena such as plantation ecologies, spatial vaccination strategies, modelling techniques, or the body as a metabolic milieu, the chapters reveal how relational thinking in disease control has been intricately tied to modes of power. Using a multidisciplinary approach, this collection seeks to start a broader conversation not only about the deeper roots and longer trajectory of our current regime of health security but also about the recent rise of ecological thinking in social theory and the humanities themselves.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - How well are countries prepared for the next pandemic And how to measure and evaluate pandemic preparedness In this book, Carolin Mezes examines how the practice of pandemic preparedness monitoring has become an important feature of global health security governance - and how the COVID-19 pandemic has revealed its failure. By way of document analysis and an ethnographic case study of the Joint External Evaluations, her study considers the well-rehearsed critique that preparedness monitoring cannot »predict« pandemic response performance and appears as a hollow paperwork exercise of box-ticking. An analysis of the media-technologies of preparedness monitoring gives nuance to these critiques and allows us to understand how preparedness monitoring gets caught up in the (contradictive) goals of objective knowledge production, soft-law accountability, and infrastructural development. Considering the power relations of global health, her research scrutinizes the infrastructural politics of preparedness monitoring and the modernism inherent in this developmental effort.Wie gut sind Länder auf die nächste Pandemie vorbereitet und wie misst und evaluiert man sogenannte Pandemic Preparedness In diesem Buch untersucht Carolin Mezes wie die Praxis des Monitoring pandemischer Preparedness zu einem wichtigen Bestandteil der Goverance globaler Gesundheitssicherheit wurde - und wie die COVID-19 Pandemie das Scheitern dieser Praxis sichtbar machte. Mittels Dokumentenanalyse und einer ethnographischen Fallstudie der Joint External Evaluations diskutiert ihre Studie die Kritik, dass Preparedness Monitoring nicht »vorhersagen« kann, wie Länder auf einen pandemischen Notfall reagieren können und als nur oberflächliche Verwaltungsübung zu verstehen ist. Eine Analyse der Medientechnologien von Preparedness Monitoring nuanciert diese Kritik und erlaubt uns zu verstehen wie sich Preparedness Monitoring in seinen verschiedenen Zielen verfängt: der Produktion objektiven Wissens, einer »soft-law« Rechenschaftspraxis, sowie der Gestaltung infrastruktureller Entwicklung. Mit Blick auf die Machtverhältnisse des Feldes globaler Gesundheit befragt ihre Forschung die Infrastrukturpolitik von Preparedness Monitoring und den Modernismus, der diesem Entwicklungsvorhaben innewohnt.…
