Full Description
In an era where debates about public health research, policy, and practice are central to the wider socio-political discourse, this invaluable volume brings together key themes from the last 15 years of critical scholarship in and of public health.
The book provides both empirical examples and the conceptual tools for rethinking the role of public health in society, challenging the familiar biomedicalized and individualized discourse that has dominated throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Divided into nine chapters, it covers key topics such as complex systems of health determinants, evidence-making in public health, and the role of corporate actors and philanthropists. Reframing the field through local and global political lenses, New Directions in Critical Public Health: Health in Turbulent Times also integrates interdisciplinary perspectives to provide a truly holistic overview of this rapidly evolving area.
It will interest not only students and scholars of public health and the health sciences more widely, but also those in the fields of sociology, political and development studies, and economics.
