Comments
Global health is a field of IR that lies at the intersection of development, medicine, public health, human rights and humanitarianism, trade policy and security (to name a few particularly influential sectors). A vast array of transnational and local actors, ranging from the World Health Organization and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to the Consortium of Universities for Global Health, seeks to shape this transnational policy field. This seminar offers a critical perspective on this field through the lens of international political sociology and explores the political geography, power dynamics, and open and subtle, symbolic violence in global health. It draws on concrete empirical contributions from within IR and from disciplines such as medical history, area studies, anthropology, public health, sociology, and political economists. The study of global health brings to the surface how international relations are shaped by global historical forces, such as colonialism, scientific universalism, imperialism, migration, capitalism, and war and foreign policy. close
