Draining the Swamp: The Local Governance of Mosquito Borne Diseases in Florida
Public health capacity can be placed in local public health departments or alternative bureaucracies. Provision of local services through special district (SD) governments has been widely studied in local politics. What have not been examined are the implications of SD governance for the provision of public health services. Public health services are often categorically different from other types of local government services because they address …
The second Trump administration: A policy analysis of challenges and opportunities for European health policymakers
BACKGROUND: The second Trump administration has already made major changes in US policies that affect health and health systems worldwide. METHODS: We use the Health System Performance Assessment categories developed by the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies to identify areas in which US actions affect the health systems and policies of European states and the EU, and presidential Executive Orders supplemented by campaign stateme…
Borrowing regulatory capacity in middle-income countries during public health crises: Brazil, regulatory reliance, and the politics of Covd-19 vaccine regulation
Longitudinal evaluation of Covid-19 vaccine hesitancy in the United States: Analysis of the US Census Household Pulse survey
Addressing the challenge of vaccine hesitancy is crucial in managing public health crises like the COVID-19 pandemic. This study leverages the U.S. Census Bureau’s Household Pulse Survey to examine COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy, with a specific focus on the longitudinal tracking of vaccination beliefs and the influence of varying risk perceptions. It investigates how public attitudes towards vaccines evolve, influenced by changing perceptions of COV…
Alignment and authority: Federalism, social policy, and Covid-19 response
Parallel, divergent or drifting? Regulating healthcare products in a post-Brexit UK
EU laws have exerted a powerful influence on research, manufacturing, supply, sale and procurement of the products on which national health systems rely. Pre-Brexit, the UK was closely involved in the policy and operation of regulations affecting these goods. Since Brexit, ideological polarisation and the political salience of health during a global pandemic have driven a rhetoric of competitive divergence. However, active UK policy divergence to…
Centralizing and decentralizing governance in the Covid-19 pandemic: The politics of credit and blame
Perspectives in the study of the political economy of Covid‐19 vaccine regulation
Vaccines against SARS‐CoV‐2 continue to be developed at an astonishingly quick speed and the early ones, like Pfizer and Moderna, have been shown to be more effective than many public health scientists had dared to hope. As COVID‐19 vaccine research continues to progress, the world's eyes are turning toward medicine regulators. COVID‐19 vaccines need to be authorized for use in each country in which the pharmaceutical industry intends to commerci…
Brexit and trade policy: An analysis of the governance of UK trade policy and what it means for health and social justice
BACKGROUND: There is an extensive body of research demonstrating that trade and globalisation can have wide-ranging implications for health. Robust governance is key to ensuring that health, social justice and sustainability are key considerations within trade policy, and that health risks from trade are effectively mitigated and benefits are maximised. The UK's departure from the EU provides a rare opportunity to examine a context where trade go…
Social policy as an integral component of pandemic response: Learning from Covid-19 in Brazil, Germany, India and the United States
It is easy but mistaken to think that public health emergency measures and social policy can be separated. This paper compares the experiences of Brazil, Germany, India and the United States during their 2020 responses to the COVID-19 pandemic to show that social policies such as unemployment insurance, flat payments and short-time work are crucial to the effectiveness of non-pharmaceutical interventions as well as to their political sustainabili…
Lessons for the United States From Single-Payer Systems
US political debates often refer to the experience of “single-payer” systems such as those of Canada and the United Kingdom. We argue that single payer is not a very useful category in comparative health policy analysis but that the experiences of countries such as Canada, the United Kingdom, Spain, Sweden, and Australia provide useful lessons. In creating universal tax-financed systems, they teach the importance of strong, unified governments at…
European Citizenship Rights and European Fiscal Politics After the Crisis
The economic effects of the financial crisis in the eurozone have been much studied, but the impact of political and institutional changes made amidst crisis conditions have been less studied. This article examines the changes in the EU since 2008 through the lens of T.H. Marshall’s concept of citizenship, gauging the effects of different changes in the EU polity on the citizenship rights of individuals. The key changes are in fiscal governance, …
The New Political Economy of Health Care in the European Union: The Impact of Fiscal Governance
We argue that the political economy of health care in the European Union is being changed by the creation of a substantial new apparatus of European fiscal governance. A series of treaties and legal changes since 2008 have given the European Union new powers and duties to enforce budgetary austerity in the member states, and this apparatus of fiscal governance has already extended to include detailed and sometimes coercive policy recommendations …
Devolution and the civil service: A biographical study
Since devolution, the United Kingdom has evolved not only in terms of political representation but also in terms of the relationships between civil servants in each of its regions and nations. In this paper, we present an analysis of the distinct professional and educational backgrounds of elite civil servants in Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Using a new database of professional biographies of top officials across all four jurisdictions,…
Healthcare, borders, and boundaries: Crossborder health markets and the entrepreneurial state
Responding to arguments that states are strongly constrained by global capital, this article uses the concept of the entrepreneurial state to analyze the ways states create crossborder health markets. The article, combined with the others in this special issue, provide three key findings. First, we find that the territorially bound nature of much domestic health policy is being challenged by international integration in a growing number of sector…
Traveling for Treatment: A Comparative Analysis of Patient Mobility Debates in the European Union and United States
International medical travel, or medical tourism, is receiving attention globally. Most discussions focus on the potential savings from outsourcing medical care. This article adopts a comparative approach, identifying lessons from European Union discussions that illuminate areas left obscure in the broader international debate. First, it points out that the highly visible US debate, focused on cost, is ignoring two other crucial components of hea…
When trade law meets public health evidence: The World Trade Organization and clove cigarettes
A recent trade dispute between the USA and Indonesia, overseen by the World Trade Organization, challenges piecemeal approaches to tobacco regulation
Managing risks in EU health services policy: Spot markets, legal certainty and bureaucratic resistance
European Union (EU) healthcare services policy has been largely driven by the European Court of Justice (ECJ) applying the law of the internal market to the previously separate area of healthcare systems. We argue that it opened up two major risks: that health service planning would be disrupted by cross-border flows of patients and professionals, including ostensibly interchangeable professionals or procedures that actually vary in quality; and …
Collaboration and Consultation: Functional Representation in EU Stakeholder Dialogues
In the past decade, the EU has experimented with various types of consultation mechanisms intended to address perceived deficits in policy knowledge and decision-making legitimacy within the European system. I examine attempts by the European Commission to build up its decision-making legitimacy and inform policy via various formal mechanisms, focusing on the extent to which the relationship between the Commission and its civil society groups is …
In the Eye of the Storm: Civil Servants and Managers in the UK Department of Health
In the wake of the 2008 financial crisis, the UK government faces some tough choices over public expenditure, and these choices will have important implications for both the future of health policy and the way in which health services are managed. In this article, we examine the organization and leadership of the UK Department of Health and weigh its suitability to meet such challenges. We find an organization that is culturally split between pub…
What Whitehall: Definitions, Demographics and the Changing Home Civil Service
This article asks who works in Whitehall today. We argue that there are points of consensus about the nature of ‘Whitehall’, including generalism, internal labour markets, Oxbridge education, and lifetime careers. An analysis of 306 biographies of the top team of the UK civil service, which goes beyond existing published use of biographical data on the topic, allows us to compare the civil service with this model. We find that in every respect th…
Sleeping Giant: Awakening the Transatlantic Services Economy – Edited by D.S. Hamilton and J.P. Quinlan
The other Side of the Coin: Knowledge, NGOs and EU Trade Policy
Despite the persistent influence of business, non-profit interest groups promoting development for the world's poorest countries, environmental protection, public health and other issues are actively seeking to influence the European trade agenda. Presenting interview evidence from doctoral research on lobbying and trade policy in the European Union and United States, this article argues that within new forms of EU consultation, insider business …
