A special edition of the Journal of Health Organisation and Management on the topic of social values and health priority setting was published in May. The special issue was edited by and comprised entirely of papers contributed by members of the Social Values network.

The special edition includes papers on the theoretical and philosophical underpinnings of the concept of social values in health priority setting, on issues of priority setting in Thailand, South Korea, China, the UK and Latin America, and on proposals for the future of our policy network.
