Author Response to Letter to the Editor: Making Power Visible in Global Health Governance

摘要

I thank Muntaner, Ng, and Chung (2012) for their letter to the editor in response to my American Journal of Bioethics article, Shared Health Governance (SHG) (Ruger 2011). Muntaner and colleagues' main worry is that major power differentials among nations are largely absent from the SHG article. While that article does not directly and explicitly speak to the importance of power relations in global health governance, other works do address these issues.
