This comprehensive book delves into the complex and challenging realm of infectious diseases, addressing a wide range of legal and ethical issues through a series of thought-provoking essays. The authors not only explore these pressing concerns but also propose potential solutions to ensure that past mistakes are not repeated in the face of future outbreaks. The essays touch upon several key themes, including institutional competence, the accountability and responsibility of non-state actors, the significance of pharmaceuticals, and the transition towards a rights-based approach in global health.
By engaging with these critical topics, readers gain valuable insights into important questions such as: How can we assist victims in other countries? What role should international organizations play in combating infectious diseases, and how can they ensure that their actions do not exacerbate the situation? How can we ensure that pharmaceutical research benefits all communities, including those who cannot afford to pay for these products?
While the book focuses on global health law, it adopts an interdisciplinary approach that draws on public international law, philosophy, international relations, human rights law, and healthcare economics. This multidisciplinary approach makes it a valuable resource for academic libraries, appealing to scholars and postgraduates engaged in relevant research, as well as to those involved in global health and policy at the international level.
In conclusion, this book offers a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the legal and ethical dimensions of infectious diseases, providing valuable insights and solutions for a better understanding and response to these global health challenges.
