Abstract

This chapter is intended as a contribution to research into socio-political processes that intertwine in health policy management. It focuses on the relationship between state agencies and society, the area in which the health system problems and the difficulties faced by reforms in their attempt to resolve them become evident. It covers key issues to the understanding of social practice in these policies; it identifies the attributes particular to this field, reviews some of the approaches to observing policies in action and proposes guidance to inquiry the complexity of implementation. It concludes with a provisional agenda for research into these phenomena from the public sociology approach.
