In this paper we emphasize the importance of questioning the global validity of significant concepts underpinning global health policy. This implies questioning the concept of global health as such and accepting that there is no global definition of the global. Further, we draw attention to 'quality' and 'empowerment' as examples of world-forming concepts. These concepts are exemplary for the gentle and quiet forms of power that underpin our reasoning within global health.
在本文中,我们强调了质疑全球卫生政策所依据的重要概念的全球性有效性的重要性。这意味着质疑全球卫生本身的概念,并承认不存在全球定义的全球。此外,我们提请注意“质量”和“赋权”作为世界形成概念的例子。这些概念是全球卫生领域内我们推理所依据的温和而安静的权力形式的典范。
