This book presents health communication scholarship from Chile, China,
Colombia, Ecuador, Japan, New Zealand, Sweden, United States, and
Venezuela, that recognizes the central role of communication in
addressing and coping with health disparities across diverse
populations. It thus advances understanding of the nuances of long
standing, as well as emerging health disparities in our ever-changing
social environment. The volume features eleven original,
interdisciplinary research and evidence-based articles from scholars
with distinct disciplinary backgrounds and unique positionalities who
offer new and meaningful perspectives for scholars and practitioners
in their diversity, equity, inclusion, and social justice efforts
within domains such as health communication and public health.
Contributions to the book facilitate meaningful dialogue and knowledge
exchanges to address a wide range of key health disparities related to
structural barriers and racial inequities. Featuring highly
interdisciplinary research spanning from the Global South to the
Global North, this book will be a key resource for researchers,
scholars and practitioners in both communication studies and health
sciences, as well as their respective allied fields such as media
studies, telecommunications, journalism, sociology, anthropology,
cultural studies, medical science, nursing, public health,
psychology/psychiatry, and medical informatics. It was originally
published as a special issue of Health Communication.
