Biographical note
Sara E. Davies is ARC Future Fellow and QUT Vice-Chancellor Research Fellow at the Australian Centre for Health Law Research, Queensland University of Technology. Jeremy R. Youde is Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Minnesota Duluth, USA.’Detecting, monitoring and responding to infectious disease outbreaks can be a high-stakes and deeply politicised process. Davies and Youde have assembled a diverse and impressive cast of contributors to a timely and informative volume. The fresh, interdisciplinary perspectives it offers warrant careful reading by scholars and decision-makers worldwide.’ Christian Enemark, Aberystwyth University, UK ’The Politics of Surveillance and Response to Disease Outbreaks addresses a topic central to global health security but still underexplored in academic and policy communities. The contributors to the volume have done an excellent job examining how the revised IHR and technological revolution have transformed the policy context for disease surveillance and how states seek to improve their policy practice through politically attuned surveillance principles.’ Yanzhong Huang, Council on Foreign Relations and Seton Hall University, USA
