By: Contributor(s): Material type: TextTextPublication details: 2006Subject(s): In: Review of International Studies Vol 32 no 1, January 2006, pp.5-23 (45)Summary: Health has become an important component of foreign and security policy but has tended to emphasise selected infectious diseases and bio-terror and be seen mainly from the perspective of the potential impact these may have in the West. This paper argues for a wider perspective (e.g. the relationship between health and internal stability, and health and illicit activities), and that global public health as an end in itself should have a higher priority.
