Summary

In Chapter 18, we outlined a reading of the present global conjuncture that we characterized as one of organic crisis. The term was meant to invoke a paradoxical situation, one pregnant with possibilities for alternative ways in which global health might be improved, yet nevertheless a situation in which new alternatives have yet to emerge or indeed to be born.
