Steering Against Superbugs: The Global Governance of Antimicrobial Resistance de Olivier Rubin

Steering Against Superbugs: The Global Governance of Antimicrobial Resistance

Editat de Olivier Rubin, Erik Baekkeskov, Louise Munkholm
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 mai 2023

Recomandăm acest volum specialiștilor în sănătate publică, rezidenților în boli infecțioase și decidenților politici care se confruntă cu una dintre cele mai severe amenințări pe termen lung la adresa sănătății globale. Steering Against Superbugs nu este doar o analiză clinică a rezistenței bacteriene, ci un studiu riguros despre eșecurile și potențialul guvernanței internaționale în fața unei crize transfrontaliere. Notăm cu interes modul în care editorii, Olivier Rubin, Erik Baekkeskov și Louise Munkholm, reușesc să depășească barierele teoretice pentru a propune soluții de coordonare între sectoarele medical, agricol și de mediu.

Acolo unde Antimicrobial Resistance and its Consequences on the Global Economy de Debajyoti Bose se concentrează pe impactul financiar și obiectivele de dezvoltare durabilă, acest volum aprofundează mecanismele de putere și politicile publice necesare pentru a transforma protocoalele globale în acțiuni locale eficiente. Apreciem în mod deosebit secțiunile care tratează echitatea dintre Nordul și Sudul Global, subliniind că nicio strategie împotriva „super-microbilor” nu poate avea succes fără o recunoaștere a disparităților de resurse.

Această lucrare se integrează coerent în opera anterioară a lui Olivier Rubin, care a explorat în Chronic Crises natura dezastrelor prelungite. Dacă în lucrările sale despre foamete și pandemii autorul analiza răspunsul la șocuri iminente, în Steering Against Superbugs aplică aceeași rigoare analitică asupra rezistenței antimicrobiene, tratată ca o criză cronică ce subminează progresele medicinei moderne. Tonul este clinic și pragmatic, oferind o perspectivă multidisciplinară esențială pentru înțelegerea complexității „One Health”.

De ce să citești această carte

Pentru medicii și experții în politici de sănătate, această carte oferă cadrul conceptual necesar pentru a înțelege de ce inițiativele globale de combatere a AMR eșuează adesea la nivel local. Veți câștiga o perspectivă clară asupra mecanismelor de reglementare și advocacy, esențiale pentru oricine dorește să contribuie la strategiile naționale de utilizare rațională a antibioticelor și la protejarea siguranței alimentare globale.

Despre autor

Olivier Rubin este un cercetător recunoscut pentru analizele sale asupra crizelor cronice și dezastrelor globale. Expertiza sa vastă se reflectă în lucrări precum Democracy and Famine și Contemporary Famine Analysis, unde explorează intersecția dintre eșecurile politice și catastrofele umanitare. Alături de Erik Baekkeskov și Louise Munkholm, Rubin aduce în Steering Against Superbugs o abordare multidisciplinară asupra rezistenței antimicrobiene, tratând subiectul nu doar ca o problemă medicală, ci ca o provocare fundamentală de guvernanță globală, similară cu schimbările climatice sau pandemiile, teme recurente în cercetările sale anterioare.

Descriere

The societal consequences of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) are severe. They include declining health outcomes from longer illnesses, prolonged stays in hospital, loss of protection for patients undergoing medical procedures, increased health care expenditure, and increased mortality. They also include declining global food security as AMR damages farm animal health and crop yields. Despite AMR being a transboundary crisis, concerted global initiatives that effectively combat AMR have been few and far between.Steering Against Superbugs analyses ways to reduce barriers and create opportunities for coordination. The expert contributions in this volume offer specific and original insights about what global governance of AMR means, and ways to help solve AMR issues. They show that effective governance relies crucially on pursuing local level implementation of key policies, and equitable recognition of solutions across multiple sectors within countries, and across the Global North and South. With the COVID-19 pandemic, societies across the world have been reminded of the devastating consequences of not being able to effectively counter global health threats. AMR is arguably one of the most severe long-term threats to human, animal, and environmental health. There is momentum for global political action around novel and emerging disease threats and Steering Against Superbugs contributes with original and insightful research to inform ongoing and future debates.

Recenzii

This volume collects together key insights from across social sciences on AMR governance. AMR is now the third-leading underlying cause of death globally, which is why a global approach and global governance is necessary. Through a global perspective, the case studies in this volume highlight both successes and challenges of local, regional, and global governance for AMR. As we work together across the world to tackle the 'silent' AMR pandemic, I strongly recommend this book for all in the global and public health and policy sphere to help galvanise action to address the insidious and complex health emergency of AMR.
Steering Against Superbugs comprehensively unpacks the root social drivers of antimicrobial resistance and masterfully situates these drivers in their cultural, historical and political contexts. Rubin, Baekkeskov, and Munkholm have brought together some of the world's leading thinkers in this field and have pro¬vided us with some of the best ideas yet to tackle this intensifying global health challenge that already kills more than 1.2 million people each year.
This exciting volume achieves what many have been waiting for: a compen¬dium of social science approaches to antimicrobial resistance. With a focus on governance, the authors demonstrate the strengths of different disciplines by providing evidence at multiple scales of the ways in which antibiotics, and drug resistance, is-and can be-governed. From clinics, to bednets, to global policy spaces, the book introduces the reader to detailed case studies that enlighten and awaken interest in the multiple dimensions that make up the complex challenge of antimicrobial resistance globally.
Microbes, humans, One Health, and the interplay between them through AMR. This book introduces the reader to the conceptual issues of AMR, and then steers her through governance challenges, One Health aspects, global awareness, advocacy and regulatory matters. This is essential reading, not just for those working in this critical field but also for policy- makers, healthcare leaders, One Health professionals, and the wider community-providing an armament of knowledge, insight, and perspectives in the fight against AMR.

With twenty years of experience in disaster and crisis management, Rubin has received several highly competitive multiyear grants and published widely in international outlets pertaining to crisis management, politics & public administration, and public health. Dr Rubin's recent years have been devoted to health crisis research with investigations of the global governance of antimicrobial resistance and the challenges of integrating evidence-based decision making in major health crises responses.Erik Baekkeskov is a political scientist who researches and teaches governance at the intersection of public health and crisis management. His theoretical work has particularly focused on the roles of science and experts, and the related logic of policy-making and public administration. His empirical work has focused on cases of public health threats, including the 2009 H1N1 pandemic, 2014 Ebola, 2020 COVID-19, and the growing antimicrobial resistance crisis. His work is published in public policy, public administration, and public health academic journals and volumes.Louise Munkholm is an independent researcher and consultant. She holds a PhD in social science from Roskilde University. Her research focuses on the sociology of law, including the development, application, and enforcement of regulatory responses to transnational phenomena, such as AMR. Her scholarly publications include books with Hart Publishing and Routledge, and articles in journals such the Journal of Law and Society, Globalization and Health, the Journal of Public Health Policy, and Public Administration and Development.
