Issues of International Comparison
XVIII ISA World Congress Yokohama 13-14 July 2014
Session Organizers
Philippe MOSSE, Aix Marseille Université, France,
Tetsu HARAYAMA, Toyo University, Japan.
Session in English
Health systems and their protagonists are faced with similar challenges (demographic, financial, economic, social) that health professionals are supposed to solve. Faced with these challenges is a great temptation to develop answers "universal" illustrated the deployment of "New Public Management".
The session will aim to confront comparative approaches that allow to highlight the tension between the apparent convergence and persistence of country-specific logic.
