  • Rethinking international financing for health to better respond to future pandemics

    Open AccessMing Xu, Christoph Benn et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2023

    International financing for health has been high on the political and global health agenda since COVID-19. The recent launch of the Pandemic Fund represents the first consolidated effort of the international community to mobilise additional voluntary financial resources for the purpose of strengthening global efforts in pandemic prevention, preparedness and response (PPR). Against such a dynamic landscape, building on recent critiques and new pol…

  • Inequality and Democracy

    Simon Reid-Henry, Simon Reid‐henryARTICLEReview of Social Economy2020

    In this response I reflect on the contributions of the recently published report of the International Panel on Social Progress. I focus in particular on the Report’s treatment of the relationship between inequality and democracy: the proper subject of Chapter 14 in Part II of the report but also a central concern throughout the text. I begin by setting the Report's arguments more fully in the historical context of the past few decades, and specif…

  • From Welfare World to Global Poverty

    Simon Reid-Henry, Simon Reid‐henryARTICLEHumanity2017

    Gunnar Myrdal was one of the earliest and most vocal advocates of the need for international redistribution, or what he termed “welfare world”. As Myrdal himself pointed out the western welfare state was itself often a barrier to such redistribution internationally. Myrdal eventually came to see the western, and specifically swedish welfare state as a model for more generous flows of international aid, but this on primarily humanitarian grounds. …

  • The “humanitarianization” of urban violence

    Open AccessSimon Reid-Henry, Simon Reid‐henry et al.ARTICLEEnvironment and Urbanization2014Cited by: 11References: 9

    This paper describes how international humanitarian organizations (IHOs) are adapting their operations to working in the urban environment. When levels of armed violence in urban areas are sufficient to trigger international humanitarian law, organizations such as the International Committee for the Red Cross (ICRC) may argue that they have an important contribution to make by offering a set of skills and experience gleaned in conflict and non-go…

  • Vital Geographies

    Gerry Kearns, Simon Reid-Henry et al.ARTICLEAnnals of the Association of…2009Cited by: 39References: 93

    Life has been problematized anew by recent social change and scientific innovation. There are important and little studied geographical dimensions to any such understanding of “the politics of life itself,” however. A geographical perspective involves, first, highlighting the spatial aspects of both states and capital, two rather neglected dimensions of vital politics. Elaborating the geographical constitution of vital politics entails further de…

  • Scientific Innovation and Non-Western Regional Economies

    Open AccessSimon Reid-Henry, Simon Reid‐henryARTICLEEnvironment and Planning A…2008References: 41

    A good deal of research within the cultural turn in economic geography has sought to understand the relationship between economic activity and regional culture. This work encompasses an increasingly heterodox set of approaches to regional economic activity, from innovation studies to processes of embedding to accounts of regional learning and clustering, and an increasingly broad set of empirical cases through which these issues are regularly dis…
