국제보건 영역이 규범, 정치, 권력 관계로부터 자유로운 영역이 아님을 역설
이러한 것으로부터 자유롭다고 주장하는 학자들은 역설적으로 은밀한 규범, 정치, 권력 관계를 내재하고 있는 것
국제보건 영역이 규범, 정치, 권력 관계의 영역임을 인정하고 이에 대한 토론을 벌일 필요가 있다는 논설

Global health research is essentially a normative undertaking: we use it to propose policies that ought to be implemented. To arrive at a normative conclusion in a logical way requires at least one normative premise, one that cannot be derived from empirical evidence alone. But there is no widely accepted normative premise for global health, and the actors with the power to set policies may use a different normative premise than the scholars that propose policies – which may explain the ‘implementation gap’ in global health. If global health scholars shy away from the normative debate – because it requires normative premises that cannot be derived from empirical evidence alone – they not only mislead each other, they also prevent and stymie debate on the role of the powerhouses of global health, their normative premises, and the rights and wrongs of these premises. The humanities and social sciences are better equipped – and less reluctant – to approach the normative debate in a scientifically valid manner, and ought to be better integrated in the interdisciplinary research that global health research is, or should be.
