As a formal declaration by the World Health Organization, a PHEIC is governed by clear legislation as to what is, and what is not, deemed a global health security threat. However, it has become increasingly politicized, and the legal criteria now appear to be secondary to the political motivation or outcome of the announcement. Addressing multiple empirical case studies, including COVID-19, this multidisciplinary book explores the relationship between international law and international relations to interrogate how a PHEIC is declared and its role in how we collectively respond to outbreaks.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"This is a timely and important book. Combining differing disciplinary approaches, it provides an incisive and critical analysis of a topic of growing controversy in the global health community."
