Abstract

Historical perspectives on urban health focus mainly on the production of public health, on strategies and policies deployed by towns and cities that are authorized to act for the common good. This chapter gives a largely chronological perspective on public health developments, from medieval to early modern, and then to a consideration of the major shifts in public health that occurred in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Although in this chapter most attention is devoted to European trends, the colonization of the Americas, Africa, and Asia ensured networks of knowledge that were, by contemporary standards, quite quickly disseminated, though locally taken up at very variable rates. The historical study of public health is, therefore, an inherently worldwide one, with the important qualification that the pace of change and uptake of ideas was uneven.

城市公共卫生的历史透视
城市卫生的历史视角主要集中在公共卫生的生产、被授权为公共利益行事的城镇部署的战略和政策上。本章主要从时间的角度介绍了从中世纪到现代早期的公共卫生发展,然后考虑了18世纪和19世纪公共卫生的重大转变。尽管在本章中,大多数注意力都集中在欧洲趋势上,但美洲、非洲和亚洲的殖民化确保了知识网络的传播速度相当快,尽管在当地的传播速度非常不稳定。因此,公共卫生的历史研究本质上是一项全球性的研究,其重要条件是,改变和接受思想的速度是不均衡的。
