Zusammenfassung:
This book explores the intersection of public health and international economic law, with a focus on preventing non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and promoting better health globally. It examines the role of international trade and investment law, including frameworks like the World Trade Organization (WTO), in addressing the commercial determinants of health, such as the influence of tobacco, alcohol, and unhealthy food industries. The authors analyze legal challenges, regulatory measures, and policy tools to combat NCDs, emphasizing the importance of evidence-based approaches and international cooperation. Intended for policymakers, legal scholars, and public health professionals, the book aims to bridge the gap between academic analysis and practical policy implementation in the context of global health governance.
