This implies questioning the concept of global health as such and accepting that there is no global definition of the global. Further, we draw attention to ‘quality’ and ‘empowerment’ as examples of world-forming concepts. These concepts are exemplary for the gentle and quiet forms of power that underpin our reasoning within global health.}, keywords = {Global Health Governance,Power,Language,Global Health}, url = {https://www.ijhpm.com/article_2948.html}, eprint = {https://www.ijhpm.com/article_2948_7bcbc20c798d30ed1c28c05642b469c5.pdf} }
