Chapter 1 -- Introduction -- Chapter 2 -- Citizenship, Pursuit of Health Justice and Health Care Jurisprudence -- Chapter 3 -- An Overview of Health Care jurisprudence in India -- Chapter 4 -- Health care Jurisprudence and Health Justice: Procedural and Substantive justice dimensions -- Chapter 5 -- Health Justice and the dialectics of power: State, Medical Profession and Civil Society -- Chapter 6 -- Conclusion: Unbundling Health Justice
This book presents important fields of research in public healthcare in India from an interdisciplinary and health systems perspectives. Discussing how the exchange of power between the health justice triad, viz., the State (judiciary as the arm of the State), legal and medical professions, and civil society, cumulatively shapes the outcomes of health justice for citizens, it provides insights into India's juridico-legal processes and of seeking justice in healthcare. It critically assesses civil society's counter-hegemonic role in bolstering justice in health care and examines the potential of transforming health care jurisprudence into health justice. Repositioning the social right to healthcare as integral to social citizenship and social justice, and opening avenues for inter-professional and interdisciplinary power discourse in public health policy research, the book is of interest to academics, practitioners, students, researchers, and the wide academic community working in public health care issues broadly. .
