Health promotion in actionfrom local to global empowerment /[electronic resource] :Ronald Labontâe, Glenn Laverack ; with a foreword by Fran Baum. - Basingstoke [England] ;Palgrave Macmillan,2008. - xvii, 215 p. :ill. ;23 cm.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 185-203) and index.

Health promotion : concepts and context -- Health promotion practice: power, empowerment and the social determinants of health -- Pathwaysto local empowerment -- Working to build empowerment : the local challenge -- Pathways from the local to the global -- Working to build empowerment : the global challenge -- Glocalisation : health promotion's next grand challenge?

Globalization is reshaping the field of health promotion practice. In this innovative study, the authors outline health promotion's traditional concerns and argue that 'a policy of glocalization' (thinking globally, acting locally) can succeed in establishing health equality and achieving empowerment individually, locally, nationally and globally. Drawing on international examples across Africa, Asia, Europe and North America, this study analyses economic policies and their link to health,particularly in relation to the developing world. Globalization affects health in varied ways and this book examines the competing ways in which 'global health' has been framed in public policy, concluding by revealing how health promoters can respond to globalization's new challenges.
