In the burgeoning work on global health governance, the Organisation of Economic Cooperation and Development's (OECD) role as an influential think tank and transmission belt for health policy ideas remains unexplored. Global Health Governance and the OECD is a unique and in-depth study of the development of the OECD in relation to global health governance. It traces how the OECD's predecessor, the OEEC, commenced work in health in the 1950s; work that slowly grew over the years and was expanded by the OECD into a variety of health-related areas, in the last decade into the leading source of internationally comparative health statistics and performance measures. The book will assess the place of the OECD in the broader system of global health governance, examining its relations with bodies such as the WHO, UNICEF, the WTO and the Codex Alimentarius; as well as how the OECD acts at a fine-grained level as a 'network of networks' or a 'key node' by linking together national health authorities within the series of OECD health committees that guide the work of health officials.
