Lay involvement in the public funding of medical research: Expertise and counter-expertise in empirical and analytical perspective
The relationship between social context, interaction, interpretation and the drawing of boundaries with regard to knowledge and competence deemed appropriate for informed decision-making is particularly pertinent with regard to the public funding of medical research. This article focuses on this issue by drawing on a study of an advisory group established to provide lay perspectives on the work of the UK's Medical Research Council, a publicly fun…
Mutualism and Health Care: British Hospital Contributory Schemes in the Twentieth Century ‐ By Martin Gorsky and John Mohan, with Tim Willis
Health technology adoption and the politics of governance in the UK
Health Policy and the Politics of Evidence
National decisions on the drugs, treatments and medical devices that should be funded through public expenditure are a fundamental element of health policy. But despite a political emphasis upon evidence‐based policy, the results of rigorous clinical trials and statistical modelling techniques rarely speak for themselves. So, does the pre‐eminence traditionally accorded to quantitative data in the medical field underpin policy decisions on a cons…
Local Participatory Democracy in Britain's Health Service: Innovation or Fragmentation of a Universal Citizenship
A political emphasis upon the devolution of governance and management in the British National Health Service has, since 1997, been paralleled by an apparent concern to reinvigorate patient and public involvement in aspects of planning and decision‐making. A quasi‐communitarian rhetoric and echoes of nineteenth‐century welfare mutualism have accompanied significant reform of arrangements for patient and public involvement. This article considers t…
Citizens' participation in primary healthcare planning: Innovative citizenship practice in empirical perspective
The British National Health Service has been the focus of sustained political rhetoric in favour of greater public and patient involvement in decision making. The creation of Primary Care Groups--organizations based on local groups of general practitioners--has thus been accompanied by a requirement that they involve users and the public. This article reports on a study of Primary Care Groups (n = 167) to address two questions. First, how have th…
Partnerships, Power and the “New” Politics of Community Participation in British Health Care
Multi–sectoral approaches to health improvement in its broadest sense have entailed an emphasis by the British government upon partnership working in and around community involvement in planning processes. New service planning and delivery organizations in the health service—primary care groups and primary care trusts—thus have to ensure that public and patient involvement strategies reflect a coordinated, if not integrated, multi–sectoral approa…
The individual and primary care: Service user, reflexive choice maker and collective actor
Many health policy interventions reflect implicit assumptions of cause and effect, contestable values and partial rationales - particularly in healthcare systems based on notions of entitlement and obligation. The objective-oriented nature of policies and the potential cacophony of narratives that underpin such interventions are not, though, explicable solely in terms of the achievement of particular ends envisaged by different policy actors. The…

Community participation and citizenship in British health care planning: Narratives of Power and Involvement in the Changing Welfare State
This article considers changing conceptions of local citizenship with particular reference to the idea of 'community participation' in the planning of state health care within Britain. The aim is to gauge the extent to which a political rhetoric of community participation in the 1990s constituted an attempt to redefine the relationship between health authorities (responsible for planning and prioritising services) and local communities. Data from…
Managerialism and active citizenship in Britain's reformed health service: Power and Community in an Era of Decentralisation
Reason and Protest in the New Urban Public Health Movement: An Observation on the Sociological Analysis of Political Discourse in the 'Healthy City
The urban environment represents an important social and geographical focus for the international new urban public health movement in general and the World Health Organization's 'Healthy Cities' project in particular. Existing and new policies of relevance to urban health are however infused with notions of cause, effect and ideas of appropriate intervention that reflect highly malleable and more or less conscious expressions of rationality, self…
