Abstract
Agenda setting is the issue-sorting phase in the public policy process, during which some concerns rise to the attention of policy makers while others remain neglected. Power—who holds it and how it is exercised—is a central concern in health agenda-setting research. This chapter reviews several key public policy agenda-setting models, as well as their application in public health cases. In addition, this chapter examines the role of framing processes, as well as international influences, such as policy networks and policy transfer, in shaping how particular health issues gain attention. The chapter concludes by discussing areas where more systematic knowledge on health policy agenda setting is needed.
