This book, based on extensive original research, considers the
transformation of public health systems in major East, South and
Southeast Asian countries in the period following the Second World
War. It examines how public health concepts, policies, institutions
and practices were improved, shows how international health
standards were implemented, sometimes through the direct
intervention of transnational organisations, and explores how
indigenous traditions and local social and cultural concerns
affected developments, with, in some cases, the construction of
public health systems forming an important part of nation-building
in post-war and post-independence countries. Throughout, the book
relates developments in public health systems to people's health,
demographic changes, and economic and social reconstruction
projects.
