- More about Marketisation, Ethics and Healthcare: Policy, Practice and Moral Formation
The marketization of Western healthcare systems has become increasingly opaque, and ethics has become focused on individual clinical decisions. This interdisciplinary volume explores the debates underlying the contemporary situation and introduces reconstructive and reparative discourses. The first part explores contrary interpretations of marketization, the second part presents the marketization of healthcare at the policy-making level, and the final part examines healthcare workers and ethicists' personal moral standing in a marketized healthcare system.

The marketization of Western healthcare systems has reached its fourth decade, but its nature and significance have become increasingly unclear due to evolving discourses, policies, and institutional frameworks. Additionally, ethics has shifted its focus towards individual clinical decisions, neglecting the broader political economy that shapes healthcare. This interdisciplinary volume aims to explore marketization by examining the debates underlying the contemporary situation and introducing reconstructive and reparative discourses.
The first part delves into contrasting interpretations of marketization at a systemic level, with a focus on organizational-ethical formation and the role of healthcare ethics. The second part examines the marketization of healthcare at the policy-making level, discussing the ethical implications of specific marketization measures and exploring the possibility of reconciling market forces with a covenantal understanding of healthcare. The final part explores the moral standing of healthcare workers and ethicists in a marketized healthcare system, aiming to preserve and enrich virtue, empathy, and compassion.
