Meer over het boek

In "The Politics of Pandemics," Simon Rushton examines how Western governments prioritize infectious disease as a security threat. He analyzes three decades of public health responses, focusing on pandemics, HIV/AIDS, and bioweapons. The book critiques the impact on civil liberties, symptom-focused solutions, and the selective attention to diseases, advocating for robust political engagement in global health security.
