Description

Dongyang Wang and fellow editors introduced a 2026 research collection on bringing economics into population health, containing 28 peer-reviewed studies. Public health now stretches well beyond clinics, tangled with policy, budgets, social conditions, and markets.

Health systems everywhere face tight resources and rising demand, so the collection asks how to gain the most health for a given social cost. Studies are grouped around welfare and institutional economics and statistical evaluation of policies and interventions. The editors aim for a shared framework that lets economists and health researchers judge programmes by both fairness and value for money.
