Health systems have long been considered key determinants of
well-being within modern societies, a valuable resource which have
faced a series of reform initiatives throughout the past decades.
These reforms have been used to manage the cost of development,
measure the tenability of health systems in globalizing economies
and promote the increasing importance of health problems related to
lifestyle and living conditions, yet they have failed to provide a
true resolution to the persistent economical and logistical
problems facing modern-day health systems. This rich,
interdisciplinary work explores the hypothesis that many of these
problems cannot be adequately addressed without structural changes
to our health systems, and examines the embedded features of our
health systems that underlie contemporary challenges as well as
how, and under what conditions, our health systems can be made more
sustainable. Combining and building upon theoretical approaches
from transition and innovation studies for analysing health system
deficits, Toward Sustainable Transitions in Healthcare Systems
raises fundamental questions about how new research, new needs and
exogenous trends are transforming current health innovation
systems. Providing an original and substantial analysis of the
complex structural features of the health innovation system, this
book will be of interest to students and practitioners of the
politics of health, social epidemiology, medical sociology and
those with an interest in transition theory.
