When politicians reshape public health agencies, scientists resist
changes and, if possible, leave. Those shifts make it harder for
agencies to fight future public health threats. This Element
focuses on the tension between scientists and managerial control in
the policy process, both conceptually and empirically. It centers
on a failed attempt to reorganize the United States Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention. Because many of the gains in
longevity and health quality result from the work of public health
agencies, public health scientists and practitioners are the
frontline producers of public health.
