"This edited volume is directed at experts in international law, practitioners in international institutions, and other experts who would like to familiarize themselves with the legal framework of infectious disease governance. Using the West African Ebola crisis as a case study, this book is part of a larger collaborative project on international health governance. Project partners are the Forschungsstatte der Evangelischen Studiengemeinschaft e.V. - Institute for Interdisciplinary Research and the Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law (MPIL). The authors explain the context and substantive legal framework of the Ebola crisis, while also highlighting its human rights aspects, institutional law (such as the debate on the securitization of health), and the limits to a purely legal approach to the subject. The authors are experts in public international law, public health, political science, and anthropology."--Google Books.

This volume examines how local actors respond to Africa’s high dependence on donor health funds. It conceptualizes dependent agency, a condition in which local people can both influence and be dependent on donor programs. Focusing on AIDS projects in Malawi and Zambia, the book questions the role of Africans in a dynamic aid architecture and their responses to the myriad of opportunities and constraints that accompany it.
