The articles in this special section of Journal of Public Policy & Marketing examine topics that are fundamental to the emerging understanding about how children and adolescents cope with modern marketing practices. The articles take stock of current research about child and adolescent development, and they identify important opportunities for research that are relevant to public policy on preparing children for tomorrow's marketplace.

This special section critically examines the paradigms and values that undergird the ever-expanding field of global health. The richly textured ethnographic think pieces presented here tackle problems of evidence and efficacy as complex forms of ethical and theoretical engagement in contexts of neoliberalism, war, technological innovation, inequality, and structural violence. These works seek to contribute to a people-centered and politically relevant social theory for the twenty-first century.
