The Role of Public Health in the Prevention of War
In 2009 the American Public Health Association approved the policy statement, “The Role of Public Health Practitioners, Academics, and Advocates in Relation to Armed Conflict and War.” Despite the known health effects of war, the development of competencies to prevent war has received little attention. Public health’s ethical principles of practice prioritize addressing the fundamental causes of disease and adverse health outcomes. A working grou…

Public Health and the Anticorporate Movement
Institutions and informal networks have formed a movement that is challenging the growing power and pervasive influence of large corporations. The movement’s analyses show that the historical development and current function of the corporate entity requires production of a profit regardless of consequences to health, society, or the environment. As a result, public health professionals frequently address health problems related to products, servi…
Social Networks and Peer Education
By testing the social-network method of group assignment and peer leader selection in a randomized trial design with a large number of classrooms and schools, Valente et al.1 made an important contribution to the field of peer-led adolescent tobacco use prevention. My colleagues and I recommended such a research design as a follow-up to our similar 2-year pilot research project2–7 with 347 sixth-grade students in 7 schools in which we tested the …
