新出现的传染病是学术和流行文献中日益关注甚至警报的焦点。在发展中国家和发达国家,新疾病的出现以及旧病和先前认识的传染病的死灰复燃,对理解生态因果网络(包括社会、经济、环境和生物组成部分)提出了挑战。本文在跨学科背景下综合了新出现疾病的主要特征。政治生态学是一种分析框架,有望发展一种改良的疾病生态学。 (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. 保留所有权利。
Emerging infectious diseases are the focus of increased attention and even alarm in the scholarly and popular literature. The emergence of new diseases and the resurgence of older and previously recognized infectious diseases both in developing and developed country poses challenges for understanding the:ecological web of causation, including social, economic, environmental and biological components. This paper is a synthesis of the major characteristics of emerging diseases, in an interdisciplinary context. Political ecology is one framework for analysis that is promising in developing a modified ecology of disease. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
