Isi artikel

Over the past several decades, political confl icts, economic volatility and large-scale cultural and social changes have strongly infl uenced not only global health problem and solution frameworks, but the very way we conceive of global health as a public good. As politicians, business people and cultural elites employ the language of global health to shape discourse and policies focused on displaced and migratory peoples, they have perhaps unwittingly broadened the classic public health agenda. As a consequence, that agenda now includes violence and its traumatic consequences, the health (and mental health) impact of natural and social catastrophes, other health-related problems from obesity to substance abuse, and the eff ect of pharmaceutical and digital technology innovations not previously considered to be core public health issues. Th ey expand and reformulate the traditional spheres of public health, and challenge classic public health values.
