Brings together and extends theoretically informed work on the role of health in modern
societies

Social Theory & Health (STH) provides an international scholarly forum for theoretical
reflection and debate on contemporary health issues, many of which bear directly on the
planning and delivery of services.

Interest in issues of theory and health now informs many academic and practice-oriented
disciplines and crosses discipline boundaries. The Editors encourage contributions from all
relevant disciplines, as well as from those involved directly in front-line treatment and care.

Advances the idea that all aspects of health and healthcare delivery can be viewed from
a systems perspective

Supported by area editors focused in key domains of healthcare systems

Health Systems' underpinning philosophy is that health and healthcare systems are characterized
by complexity and interconnectedness, where "everything affects everything else". Thus,
problems in healthcare need to be viewed holistically as an integrated system of multiple
components (people, organizations, technology and resources) and perspectives. The journal
sees the systems approach to be widely applicable to all areas of health and healthcare delivery,
including public health, hospitals, primary care, telemedicine, disparities, and community health.

The principal aim of Health Systems is to bring together critical disciplines that have proved
themselves already in health, and to leverage these contributions by providing a forum that
brings together diverse viewpoints and research approaches (qualitative, quantitative, and
conceptual). The journal welcomes innovative interdisciplinary work, as well as submissions
from a wide range of disciplines and sub-disciplines including (but not limited to) operations
research, information systems, design science, nursing, health informatics, industrial and
systems engineering, human computer interaction, management science, organizational behavior,
communications, public health and epidemiology.

Advances critical perspectives on the key health issues of our time

Affiliated with the World Federation of Public Health Associations (WFPHA)

Journal of Public Health Policy (JPHP) provides an accessible source of scholarly articles
on the epidemiologic and social foundations of public health policy. The journal aims to
create a more inclusive public health policy dialogue, within nations and among them.

In broadening public health policy debates beyond the health system to examine all
forces and environments that impinge on the health of populations, JPHP offers an
exciting platform for airing controversy and framing policy debates - honing policies to
solve new problems and those still unresolved.

The journal welcomes original scientific and policy contributions on all public health
topics. Authors are particularly encouraged to enter debates about how to improve the
health of populations and reduce health disparities.
