Current Legal Issues, like its sister volume Current Legal Problems (now available in journal format), is based upon an annual colloquium held at University College London. Each year leading scholars from around the world gather to discuss the relationship between law and another discipline of thought. Each colloquium examines how the external discipline is conceived in legal thought and argument, how the law is pictured in that discipline, and analyses points ofcontroversy in the use, and abuse, of extra-legal arguments within legal theory and practice.Law and Global Health, the sixteenth volume in the Current Legal Issues series, offers an insight into the scholarship examining the relationship between global health and the law. Covering a wide range of areas from all over the world, articles in the volume look at areas of human rights, vulnerable populations, ethical issues, legal responses and governance.

A Research Agenda for Gender and Health critically examines a diverse range of health topics relating to gender. Employing a global range of empirical case studies, expert authors assert that gender equality is fundamental to creating healthier societies.This multidisciplinary Research Agenda explores how gender drives specific health outcomes and is an integral feature of how other health determinants are experienced. Chapters assess key topics such as the impact of colonialism on understandings of gender and health; the roles and interactions of the private and public sector; the emergence of new anti-gender opposition; and the governance of the gender and health nexus. Overall, the authors not only evaluate current policy and practice but also propose new concepts and ideas for future research.This Research Agenda is an essential resource for students and scholars of gender studies, public health, geography and social policy. It will also appeal to researchers interested in international development and global health.
