Globalization has immersed all of humanity in a single germ pool.
There are no health sanctuaries in a globalizing world. InGlobal
Health Governance, Obijiofor Aginam explores the relevance of
international law in contemporary public health diplomacy. He
focuses on the concept of mutual vulnerability to explore the
globalization of disease, in what is paradoxically a global village
and a divided world. Drawing from a wide range of disciplines,
Global Health Governance offers a holistic approach to global
health governance involving a multiplicity of actors:
nation-states, international organizations, civil society
organizations, and private actors. Aginam articulates modest
proposals under the rubric of communitarian globalism, a paradigm
that strives to meet the ideals of 'law of humanity.' These
proposals project a humane global health order where all of
humanity is inexorably tied into a global compact and where the
health of one nation-state rises and falls with the health of
others. International law-with its bold claims to universal
protection of human rights and human dignity-is an indispensable
governance tool for the reconstruction of damaged public health
trust in the relations of nations and peoples.
