Shiffman has argued that some actors have a great deal of power in global health, and that more reflection is needed on whether such forms of power are legitimate. Global health is a new and evolving field that builds upon the historical fields of public and international health, but is more multi-disciplinary and inter-disciplinary in nature. This article argues that the distribution of power in some global health institutions may be limiting the contributions of all researchers in the field.
希夫曼认为,一些演员在全球健康领域拥有巨大的权力,需要更多地思考这些权力是否合法。全球健康是一个新的、不断发展的领域,它建立在公共卫生和国际卫生的历史领域之上,但在性质上更加多学科和跨学科。本文认为,一些全球卫生机构的权力分配可能限制了该领域所有研究人员的贡献。
