The articles will attempt to shed light on the practices, principles, values, or institutions which have had an impact on wellness and health, both from a strictly medical point of view and from a broader social perspective. The WHO defines health not only as the absence of disease, but as a \u201cstate of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing\u201d. Yet this seemingly simple definition hides a wide range of different interpretations, as health can be understood in varying ways: individual but also collective, private, and public; related to political, social, economic, and cultural factors that have themselves constantly evolved. To try and map the contours of health, it is therefore necessary to study how individuals engage with their own health, but also the society to which they belong and the environment in which they live. As for wellness, it can be understood as \u201ca set of practices, choices and lifestyles\u201d leading to the achievement of personal satisfaction (Global Wellness Institute).<\/p>\n<p>While the two notions of wellness and health are thus very closely linked, they should not necessarily be taken as interchangeable or equivalent. Health is indeed seen only as one condition among others of wellness, just as it can be totally dissociated from it. The study of the tensions, interactions, boundaries between wellness and health is thus a particularly fertile and stimulating question to explore, but it will also be possible to separate these two notions and to focus on only one or the other.<\/p>\n<p>The broad objective of the publication will be to trace the contours of wellness and health from a historical point of view, be they artistic, sociological, political, or economic.<\/p>\n<p>The publication aims at adopting as broad a perspective as possible, and the following is a non-exhaustive list of possible themes that papers might explore:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Health policies and their evolution (the Welfare State, the National Health Service (NHS), Obamacare v \u201cMedicare for all\u201d in the US)<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Health and wellness in times of conflict (war medicine, the health of civilians, reflections on wellness in armies)<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Interdependence of human health, animal health, and ecosystems (see for example the recent \u201cOne Health\u201d movement, and its histories)<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The production, development, and delineation of urban or natural spaces in relation to wellness and health (parks, sanitation policies, urban planning, and climate change); health and the environment<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Health, wellness, and sport<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The development of leisure, changes in consumption patterns, in relation to individual and collective well-being (rise of \u201cwellness centers\u201d and of the wellness industry)<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Wellness and spirituality: \u201cNew Age\u201d-type counter-cultural movements<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Health, wellness, and religious practices<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Health, wellness, and social justice<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The pursuit of wellness as a gendered issue<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Health and family and\/or birth policies, debates on abortion and sexuality<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Health and social and political struggles, health and freedom; social, racial and sexual discrimination; reproductive rights<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Health, exclusion, resilience, resistance, and cultural and identity issues<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Moral health and mental health<\/p>\n<p>\u2022
