该文集中的论文跨越了 21 年关于卫生经济学的思考和写作,首先是在泛美卫生组织(1982-1990 年),然后是在世界银行(1990-2002 年,包括借调到世界卫生组织的两年,1999-2001 年)。它们分为六个一般主题,共同涉及该领域的几个主要问题。第一章到第三章涉及健康(特别是公共卫生)与经济学之间的联系——这种联系占据了我大部分的专业精力,部分原因是我开始在一个由公共卫生专业人员主导的组织中研究这个主题,后来才转到一个由其他经济学家主导的组织。第 4 章到第 6 章讨论公平的几个不同方面,第 7 章到第 17 章讨论有效性和效率,首先是一般性术语,然后特别关注传染病和营养不良。公平和效率是经济学任何分支的主要问题之一,而且正如几章所示,它们往往无法截然分开。第 18 章至第 20 章关注健康如何以及应该如何支付涉及公平和效率的问题。
The papers in this collection span 21 years of thinking and writing about health economics, first at the Pan American Health Organization (1982-1990) and then at the World Bank (1990-2002, including two years, 1999-2001, on secondment to the World Health Organization). They are divided into six general topics, which together touch on several of the major issues in this field. Chapters 1 through 3 concern the connection between health, particularly public health, and economics-a connection that has occupied much of my professional effort, in part because I started to work on the subject in an organization dominated by public health professionals, and only later moved to an organization dominated by other economists. Chapters 4 through 6 treat several different aspects of equity, while chapters 7 through 17 deal with effectiveness and efficiency, first in general terms and then with specific attention to communicable diseases and to malnutrition. Equity and efficiency are among the main issues in any branch of economics, and-as several chapters illustrate-they often cannot be sharply separated. Chapters 18 through 20 concern how health is, and how it should be, paid for-questions that involve both equity and efficiency.
