Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is predicted to be one of the greatest
threats to public health in the twenty-first century. In this context,
understanding the reasons why perceptions of antibiotic risk differ
between different groups is crucial when it comes to tackling
antibiotic misuse. This innovative volume gathers together chapters
written by sociologists, psychologists and linguists with the common
aim of examining the social factors that affect use of antibiotics
among humans and animals. A unique focus on Denmark – one of the
world’s most progressive countries when it comes to antibiotic
regulation – as well as Europe more broadly, makes this book a
valuable resource for regulatory deliberations on future antibiotic
policy to effectively combat AMR.
