>From vision to reality? The Ottawa-charter in Norwegian health policy

The purpose of this article is to scrutinise the Norwegian health promotion
policy in order to study how the ideology of the Ottawa charter has
actually has been put into public policy. The article takes its point of
departure in Norwegian public health policy and how it has been implemented
in the last decades. In this purpose, we draw on theories of Political
science, more specifically theories where the organisation and
implementation of public policy is being scrutinised.

  ******************************************************************
   In the early hours I read in the paper of epoch-making projects
   On the part of pope and sovereigns, bankers and oil barons.
   With my other eye I watch
   The pot with the water for my tea
   The way it clouds and starts to bubble and clears again
   And overflowing the pot quenches the fire.

   -- Bertolt Brecht
