本文描述了全球化对健康影响的概念框架。该框架的制定首先确定了人口健康的主要决定因素和全球化进程的主要特征。由此产生的概念模型明确地表明,全球化影响着人口健康的制度、经济、社会文化和生态决定因素,并且全球化进程主要在背景层面上运作,同时通过其更远端和近端的决定因素影响健康。所开发的框架为如何组织研究全球化对健康影响所涉及的复杂性提供了宝贵的见解。因此,它可以通过作为“思维模型”为进一步的实证研究做出有意义的贡献,并为未来健康情景的发展提供基础。
This paper describes a conceptual framework for the health implications of globalisation. The framework is developed by first identifying the main determinants of population health and the main features of the globalisation process. The resulting conceptual model explicitly visualises that globalisation affects the institutional, economic, social-cultural and ecological determinants of population health, and that the globalisation process mainly operates at the contextual level, while influencing health through its more distal and proximal determinants. The developed framework provides valuable insights in how to organise the complexity involved in studying the health effects resulting from globalisation. It could, therefore, give a meaningful contribution to further empirical research by serving as a 'think-model' and provides a basis for the development of future scenarios on health.
