    Document: In an insightful examination of this subject, Fidler (2) suggests 3 possible interpretations of global health's rise onto foreign-policy agendas.

This perspective concludes that global health can transform the state interests that have historically defined foreign policy. Echoing this position, Kickbusch et al. write that ''foreign policy is now being driven substantially by health'' (3, p. 971) , and Horton suggests that health can move ''foreign policy away from a debate about interests to one about global altruism'' (4, p. 807 ).
