The Politics of Global Health Governance - United by Contagion (Hardcover): M Zacher, Tania J. Keefe The Politics of Global Health Governance - United by Contagion (Hardcover)
M Zacher, Tania J. Keefe
R1,473 Discovery Miles 14 730 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

AIDS, Ebola, SARS and Malaria - the list of deadly infectious diseases that provoke panic and cause devastating losses of life and economic welfare is virtually endless. In recent years the fight against infectious diseases has become a catalyst for cooperation in a world that is truly united by contagion. To an unprecedented degree, governments, international organizations, nongovernmental organizations, philanthropic foundations, and private sector businesses are banding together to contain, control and, when possible, cure infectious diseases. This book examines the nature and politics of global cooperation to combat infectious diseases in a world more interconnected than at any point in history.

The United Nations and Global Security (Hardcover, First): R Price, M Zacher The United Nations and Global Security (Hardcover, First)
R Price, M Zacher
R2,822 Discovery Miles 28 220 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Many have proclaimed the fundamentals of global security were altered by the September 11 terrorist attacks. Do these changes undercut or enhance the role of the United Nations? What do events like the role of the UN in the crisis over Iraq tell us? Here top scholars examine the role of the UN in preventing international and civil violence, arms control, deterring and reversing aggression, and addressing humanitarian crises. The chapters are concise while providing depth of understanding of the issues, positions and problems facing the United Nations and its member states in grappling with increased opportunities and threats. Their lively presentations of the drama of UN debates establish the contributions and shortcomings of global multilateralism in an era of U.S. hegemony and unilateralism.
