Making Health Policy, 3e

By: Kent Buse,Nicholas Mays,Manuela Colombini,Alec Fraser,Mishal Khan,Helen Walls

“This is the best textbook on health policy.” Prof Uta Lehmann, Director, School of Public Health, University of Western Cape, South Africa “The third edition of this excellent text reinforces its position as the best text that applies public policy concepts and theories to health policy.” Prof Martin Powell, Professor of Health and Social Policy, School of Social Policy, University of Birmingham, UK “This book is essential reading for anyone wanting guidance on managing the politics of the health policy process.” Prof Jeremy Shiffman, Bloomberg Distinguished Professor of Global Health Policy, Johns Hopkins University, USA Described as the best book in its field, this extensively updated third edition of Making Health Policy provides a comprehensive introduction to the study of health policy, its political nature and its processes at country and global levels. Written by a large and diverse group of leading experts, this clear and accessible book addresses the “how” of health policy making in a range of settings. This fully revised edition: • Responds to the movement to ‘decolonise’ and broaden the practice of global health and its related scholarship • Provides new examples of health policy processes that bring additional theoretical perspectives and empirical studies from researchers outside North America and Europe • Responds to developments in health policy such as the ecological crisis, the experience of the COVID-19 pandemic and the role of social media as well as having greater treatment of policy related to the social and commercial determinants of health • Includes new chapters on the role of the values that underpin health policy debates and on how local policy is shaped by national, regional and global influences and organisations. Making Health Policy is the ideal resource for students of public health and health policy, public health practitioners and policy makers. Authors: Kent Buse, Nicholas Mays, Manuela Colombini, Alec Fraser, Mishal Khan and Helen Walls. Understanding Public Health is an innovative series published by Open University Press in collaboration with the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, where it is used as a key learning resource for postgraduate programmes. It provides self-directed learning covering the major issues in public health affecting low-, middle- and high-income countries. Series Editors: Rosalind Plowman and Nicki Thorogood.

Understanding Shiite Leadership

The Art of the Middle Ground in Iran and Lebanon

By: Shaul Mishal,Ori Goldberg

In this book, Shaul Mishal and Ori Goldberg explore the ways in which Shiite leaderships in Iran and Lebanon approach themselves and their world. Contrary to the violent and radical image of religious leaderships in the Islamic Republic of Iran and Lebanese Hizballah, the political vision and practice of these leaderships view the world as a middle ground, shying away from absolutist and extremist tendencies. The political leadership assumed by Shiite religious scholars in Iran and Lebanon has transformed Shiite Islam from a marginalized minority to a highly politicized avant garde of Muslim presence, revitalized the practice and causes of political Islam in its struggle for legitimacy and authority, and reshaped the politics of the Middle East and the globe in its image. Utilizing approaches from social theory, history, theology, and literary criticism, the book presents these leaderships as pragmatic, interpretative entities with the potential to form fruitful relationships between Shiite leadership and the non-Shiite world.

This book analyzes the relationship between Western and Islamic political ideas.

Speaking Stones

Communiqués from the Intifada Underground

By: Shaul Mishal,Reuben Aharoni

The Intifada inspired a new kind of Palestinian radicalism, a radicalism borne on young shoulders, a radicalism that conducts its dialogue with Israel and the local population via the stone, the slingshot, the petro bomb, and the leaflet. The leaflets bring the people into the streets and instruct them what to do, and when, and how. They determine the boundaries of the permissible. If one wants to know why the Intifada erupted, what the Palestinians think and what they are fighting for, how they operate and how they perceive Israel, and whether there is anything to talk about, one should read the Palestinian leaflets. They are the documents from which the Palestinians go forth and to which they return. Mishal and Aharoni first provide some historical background to the Intifada and deal with the question of how it came about and what prevented its outbreak during the first twenty years of Israeli rule in the territories. They then turn to the leaflets and examine in detail their contents and motivations. Speaking Stones concludes with a selection of over fifty translated leaflets of the two leading bodies in the Intifada: the United National Command and the Islamic Resistance Movement, known as Hamas.
