Explores the moral dilemmas posed by disparities in health across nations
Contributors to this volume considers whether health inequalities are a result of global distributive inequalities and are therefore of concern to those promoting global redistributive justice.
Case studies include
The migration of health care practitioners from developing to developed nations
The impact of climate change
The social determinants of health outcomes
The effects of pharmaceutical legislation--and international bad practices more generally--on securing access to life-saving drugs in the developing world
The differential effect of these practices on men and women, especially with respect to HIV/AIDS
These cases are explored alongside theoretical questions of definition, responsibility and moral relevance to discover the scope of responsibilities that developed nations have towards poor health in developing nations.
