Issues covered include: * cost-containment and privatisation strategies in an international perspective * the role of business and the private sector in setting the agenda for health care reform * the restructuring of Anglo-Saxon health systems and the shift in state/market boundaries in Canada, the USA, the UK and Australia * the frontier of health care reform in terms of health and social cohesion *the role of patient choice in health care reform.
