In the US, plans to address a troubled health care model were met by vocal opposition. In the UK and post-communist Europe, attempts to introduce aspects of that model have resulted in controversy and violent protests, while China and Russia have recently backpedalled on marketising reforms. This innovative book provides a timely analysis addressing the many dimensions of radical health care change. Bringing together three major geopolitical regions with strikingly different recent histories, this international cast of contributors, examines reform in US, China and Europe within a single study frame. They look at the processes that have been involved when countries with such diverse starting points try to move towards a globally shared health care framework. An underlying theme running through the chapters is access to care, and how it is shaped by moral economies, by what can be said and known, and by political and economic power. Health Care Reform and Globalisation confronts the interpretations and experiences of patients, professionals, and politicians of health care transformation in practice. It will be of interest to scholars from a range of diverse disciplinary backgrounds, including public health, anthropology, area studies, sociology, politics, social policy, geography and economics"--Provided by publisher.Routledge advances in health and social policy.Health care reformUnited StatesHealth care reformChinaHealth care reformEuropeMedical policyUnited StatesMedical policyChinaMedical policyEuropeElectronic books.Health care reformHealth care reformHealth care reformMedical policyMedical policyMedical policy362.1Watson Margaret1948-859523MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462026603321Health care reform and globalisation1918279UNINA
