Abstract: Since 2023, an international engagement initiative (the Lusaka Agenda) has been underway to better align global health initiatives with countries' needs, with a particular attention to Africa.1 This challenge of aligning policies is part of a colonial and postcolonial history that is essential to analyze. Yet, when it comes to financing health care systems, this type of study remains rare because historians have mainly focused their attention on analyzing epidemics, diseases, and patients, leaving aside health care systems and their policies.2 For instance, although France continues to send hundreds of technical assistants to Africa, an analysis of its historical influence on health policies remains to be done. ...

Abstract: In 2018, a US Federal District Court jury awarded a group of Bolivian massacre survivors $10 million in their lawsuit against former Bolivian President Ganzalo Sanchez de Lozada (Goni) and former Defense Minister, Jose Carlos Sanchez Berzain. The survivors, eight Indigenous Bolivian families, had sued the political leaders using the Torture Victim Protection Act (TVPA), which was passed by Congress and in 1992, signed into law by George H. W. Bush. Five years after the 2018 jury award, in October 2023, the Bolivian survivors' leaders settled for an undisclosed sum.1The TVPA remains one of the few legal pathways that survivors of gross human rights violations, such as torture, massacres, and genocide, can use to ...

Abstract: In March 2021, President Joe Biden announced his intention to nominate Lina Khan as Chair of the Federal Trade Commission. Then a thirty-two-year-old legal scholar, Khan's reputation as a leader in the field of antitrust policy owed to a provocative study that she had published, while still a student at Yale Law School, on the scope of market control wielded by Amazon. Among the study's central contributions was the recovery of a lost current in US antitrust thought, one that Khan termed "economic structuralism." In the 1980s, she noted, antitrust enforcement came to be dominated by a single principle: the "consumer welfare standard," which viewed price as the sole measure of competition. If the Amazons and ... Read More

Abstract: Many policy analysts argue that modern occupational licensing, which mandates specific educational, experiential, or testing requirements before individuals may lawfully engage in a growing range of occupations, harms consumers and potential practitioners by creating barriers to entry that increase service prices without guaranteeing quality.1 Supporters of occupational licensing claim that modern quality assurance licensing is a well-established precedent with many social benefits.2This article argues that most antebellum occupational licenses were simply taxes and that only three occupations, attorneys, internal medicine doctors, and ship pilots, were licensed for quality, and then only unevenly because most ...
