No. 45 (2023): Healthy Bodies Public Policies

Coordonné par Ghislaine Gallenga et Jérôme Soldani

Coordination éditoriale (au sein d'Émulations) par Olivia Legrip-Randriambelo et Ghislain Leroy

Health policies are never exclusively sanitary or economic, but are anchored in systems of representations and in a way of thinking about the autonomy of the person. These models are followed by physical and dietary practices which may contradict the principles of health on a biomedical level or what is expected in terms of biological effects. Independently of knowing what a healthy body is, this special issues of Emulations questions what do this government of bodies and healthy body models tell us about societies.
