Ebook: Global Health

Health is a guarantee for personal well-being
and social, economic and political development
and stability. Serious threats to it can
destabilize societies, states and regions and jeopardize
peace, so global health risks have long been a subject
of security-related thought. The present study takes a
prescient look at two developments. The first is that of
the risk of pandemics, with a focus on the increasing
resistance of pathogens; the second is that of the
chances for improving global health care. The study's
final section briefly looks at three health-related
matters
to think about for the Bundeswehr.
