Using systems archetypes to understand system behaviour and identify leverage points for change in local obesity prevention in The Netherlands
Participatory system dynamics (SD) approaches view public health problems as the result of a complex system of interactions. However, most public health research makes a direct leap from system mapping—often through causal loop diagrams (CLDs)—to identifying actions for change, without trying to understand the behaviour of the system as a whole and how actions could intervene. This is possibly because robust methods are lacking. This study aimed …
A structuralist perspective on the commercial determinants of health
Commercial determinants of health (CDoH) are now widely recognized as major drivers of global morbidity and mortality. The existing literature describes the practices of health-harming industries in detail, but less attention has been paid to how capitalism systematically generates these harms. In other words, the "systems" dimension of CDoH remains under-theorized and under-researched. We propose a structuralist perspective that situates the CDo…
Agenda-setting in local food environment policy
A comparative MSF study of food policy agenda-setting shaped in a policy network. • Framing food environment issues beyond health increased their agenda status. • Food strategies were more likely with consistent views on the role of municipality. • Perceived paternalism fueled political caution in zoning policy agenda-setting. • Being in a policy network helped place and keep food policies on the agenda. Little is known about the processes throug…
Enacting healthy checkout policies
Objective: To examine policy processes and industry opposition surrounding the first US healthy checkout ordinances (HCO), which mandate nutritional standards for foods and beverages displayed in grocery checkout areas. Design: Qualitative case study comparison using Kingdon’s Multiple Streams Framework, triangulating city records, advocacy materials and key informant interviews. Setting: Local governments of Berkeley and Perris, California, USA.…
Managing public-private partnerships in public health nutrition requires ‘deep professionalism’
Managing public-private partnerships in public health nutrition requires “deep professionalism”. Editorial comment on “Managing engagement among public, private and civil society actors participating in NewTools – a research partnership on food profiling”
Is the commercial determinants conversation confined to the health sciences? Potentially, and that’s a problem
The commercial determinants of health (CDoH) are attracting increased interest and are of great importance when discussing how trade affects health. Through a citation analysis of recent foundational CDoH documents (a Lancet paper series and an Oxford University textbook), we find that fully 71% of all citations reference the health sciences. The health sciences may be well suited to documenting the specific pathways of how commercial (by)product…

Giving fruits and vegetables a tax break
Objective: Food taxation can improve diets by making unhealthy foods more expensive and by making healthy foods cheaper. In the Netherlands, a political window of opportunity arose in December 2021 to reduce the value-added tax (VAT) on fruits and vegetables to zero percent. The policy is now facing institutional friction along several fronts, however, delaying and potentially averting its implementation. We analysed this institutional friction t…
Lifestyle versus social determinants of health in the Dutch parliament
Although public health scholars increasingly recognize the importance of the social determinants of health (SDOH), health policy outputs tend to emphasize downstream lifestyle factors instead. We use an automated corpus research approach to analyse fourteen years of health policy debate in the Dutch House of Representatives' Health Committee, testing three potential causes of the lack of attention for SDOH: political ideology, by which members of…
Six lessons from introducing sweetened beverage taxes in Berkeley, Cook County, and Philadelphia
Sugar-sweetened beverage taxation in 2017
In the final issue of Public Health Nutrition in 2017, Kathryn Backholer and colleagues provide a clear overview of the spread of taxes on sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) in 2017, and a useful overview of opposing arguments and their counterpoints. Backholer et al . argue that much of the action was concentrated in the USA, but in the present commentary we point out that the recent sweep of SSB tax policy announcements in the EU seems much more p…
