Governance of the wildlife trade and the prevention of emerging zoonoses: A mixed methods network analysis of transnational organisations, silos, and power dynamics
INTRODUCTION: The wildlife trade is an important arena for intervention in the prevention of emerging zoonoses, and leading organisations have advocated for more collaborative, multi-sectoral approaches to governance in this area. The aim of this study is to characterise the structure and function of the network of transnational organisations that interact around the governance of wildlife trade for the prevention of emerging zoonoses, and to ass…

Reconceptualising Person-Centered Service Models as Social Ecology Networks in Supporting Integrated Care
Efforts to address problems such as mental health, poverty, social exclusion, and chronic disease have often proven resistant to traditional policies or interventions. In this paper, we take up the challenge and present a pioneering new method of analysis in drawing on theoretical and methodological extensions of two prominent approaches, namely, social network analysis and developmental social ecology. Considered in combination, these two seemin…
Trial and error, together: Divergent thinking and collective learning in the implementation of integrated care networks
Hybrid networks that link disparate professionals and organizations are a common approach to deliver integrated care to patients. Recent literature argues that successful implementation of these networks demands a socio-cognitive perspective in which stakeholder mental frames and thought processes are prioritized, investigated, and compared. The aims of this article are to identify where mindsets diverge among clinical and managerial stakeholders…
Power and culture in emerging medical technology policymaking: The case of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine in Canada
This article captures how scientific uncertainty is negotiated and its implications on public health policy. Through the case study of the Human Papillomavirus vaccine in Canada, we investigated how policymakers engage in ‘sensemaking’, the process whereby policymakers mediate shifting informational terrain to come to an understanding of what events and information mean, how they become significant and how they are acted upon. Key informant inter…
Reframing the challenges to integrated care: A complex-adaptive systems perspective
One possible explanation for the lack of systems change towards integration is that we have failed to treat the healthcare system as complex-adaptive. The data suggest that future integration initiatives must be anchored in a CAS perspective, and focus on building the system's capacity to self-organize. We conclude that integrating care requires policies and management practices that promote system awareness, relationship-building and information…
The politics of governance: Government—voluntary sector relationships
This article examines the dynamics at play as national non‐government AIDS organizations engage in shared governance with Health Canada, where the allocation of power between them is disproportionate and periodically, where their perspectives are at odds. This study takes a qualitative approach in identifying some of the relations, discourses and institutional processes that shape the informants' experiences. Findings reveal how power disparities…
