- Synopsis
- A contextual analysis of the internal logics of EU health law through four themes: consumerism; (human) rights; interactions between equality, solidarity and competition; and risk. Leading authors in the emergent field explain the interactions and implications of EU health law through thematic reinterpretation of the law in context in key substantive areas, such as the regulation of health research, access of patients to high quality care, health care professional regulation, organisation and funding of health care services, and public health. This book offers a fresh perspective and thorough understanding of EU health law through individual and collective or systemic perspectives, and covers health law both within the EU and globally. Essential reading for anyone interested in health law in any EU Member State or in global health law. First major study to conceptualise EU health law through its own terms, rather than those of health law or EU law. Structured around four themes which provide analytical focus and understanding of 'what is the law?' whilst considering the implications in various contexts. Easy to navigate quick reference guide which provides brief answers to the authors' 40 questions posed in the introduction.
