Polity Press Security and Global Health
Book SynopsisEvery era, it is said, has its defining malady.Trade Review'Overall, this is a very good book, containing sustained discussions on important dimensions of health security. It has the potential to inform transdisciplinary debates and provide foci for research in many areas.' International Sociology 'Professor Elbe has provided an important resource in this well-written and documented book É In it, he explores the evolution of human health security, its medicalization, and its likely impact É Through a series of case examples, and references to the work of several of the best thinkers in this field, he develops his argument about the seemingly inexorable march of medicalization as the means of achieving human health security, and points to a future that is likely to be dominated by the practice of technical medical approaches and pharmaceutical interventions.' Sarita Bhalotra, Brandeis University 'Every now and then a new book comes along that challenges us to think more deeply about an issue, to consider more carefully the choices we make and their impact. This book is just such a book. With this new work on the medicalization of security, Elbe has once again produced an insightful piece of work that will no doubt prove a reference point for policy-makers, academics, practitioners, and students, for years to come.' Adam Kamradt-Scott, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine 'This is an excellent book which provides an authoritative introduction to the subject coupled with a challenging and original new line of thinking about the problem of securing global health.' Colin McInnes, Aberystwyth University 'Stefan Elbe has written a lucid and learned examination of the debate surrounding the securitization of health in the modern era. A fascinating contribution to the increasingly salient discourse on health and global governance.' Andrew Price-Smith, The Colorado CollegeTable of Contents Acknowledgments 1.

John Wiley and Sons Ltd Global Health Governance
Book SynopsisTrade Review"An accessible and clearly written introduction to the subject."LSE Politics Blog"In an era of increasing integration, the challenge of governing global health could not be more pressing. Scholars and policy analysts alike require a clear framework for understanding the complex web of actors and interests in this arena. Jeremy Youde's Global Health Governance offers a critical resource for making sense of past, present, and future developments."Evan S. Lieberman, Princeton University "This book will become an important reference for scholars and practitioners engaged in global governance and public health. Accessible and interesting to the non-expert, Global Health Governance draws on an impressive range of examples in order to demonstrate why today 'health has assumed a prominent place on the international agenda.'"Kim Yi Donne, Texas A&M University "Provides a very useful and accessible introduction to some of the key actors and issues in contemporary global health governance. Does a good job of setting GHG in historical context, showing the ways in which the field has changed in recent years and the impact of the entrance of a variety of new actors."Simon Rushton, Aberystwyth University, WalesTable of ContentsList of Acronyms vi List of Figures and Tables viii Acknowledgements ix Introduction 1 Part I History 11 1 Early International Health Governance Efforts 13 Part II Actors 27 2 The World Health Organization 29 3 The World Bank 46 4 UNAIDS and the Global Fund 63 5 Private Actors 82 6 Civil Society Organizations 99 Part III Key Issues 115 7 The Global Infectious Disease Surveillance Regime 117 8 Framing Health Security 132 9 Access to Pharmaceuticals 144 Conclusion 157 Notes 164 Bibliography 166 Index 184
