The shift to prevention and health promotion is an example of how policy makers aim to rationalise and organise both health systems and patients' health practices. This book provides insights into the micropolitics of prevention and health promotion by analysing how patients are framed as being at risk, how preventative regimes shape medical practices, and their practical consequences in patients' everyday lives. It is relevant for prevention and health promotion practitioners, public health policy-makers, and researchers.

The shift towards prevention and health promotion exemplifies the strategic approach of policy makers to rationalize and structure both healthcare systems and patient health practices. By adopting a perspective from empirical science and technology studies (STS), rooted in qualitative research methodologies, the chapters in this book offer a behind-the-scenes glimpse and delve into the intricate micropolitics of prevention and health promotion. They examine how patients are portrayed as vulnerable, how preventative regimes influence medical practices, and the practical implications these have on patients' daily lives. Consequently, the insights gathered in this book hold significant value for practitioners, policymakers, and researchers involved in the fields of prevention and health promotion.
