      abstract = {The International Health Regulations (ihr) have been  severely tested by the covid-19 pandemic. Recent reviews  have identified a number of gaps and challenges and  proposed improvement, but the Regulations should be  analysed in their context as a constitutional instrument  deeply embedded in who’s governance to better understand  their systemic strengths and weaknesses. The ihr embody a  managerial model of health governance that aims at  depoliticizing international response to health emergencies  and coordinating it on the basis of expertise and  persuasion. The political crisis accompanying the covid-19  pandemic, however, reveals the need for a different and  more political approach that injects states in the  governance of the ihr following models tested by other  international agreements. It also highlights the need for a  more effective framework of cooperation and coordination  that builds upon who’s practice of inter-institutional  cooperation but complements it through institutional  consultation structures involving directly states parties.},
