Also known as eHealth, telehealth or connected health, digital health brings together all the digital products and systems used to provide healthcare. Since the early 2000s, healthcare systems around the world have been increasingly using digital technology, against a backdrop of reduced resources and healthcare spending, but also increased patient involvement. From computerized Personal Health Records to mobile phone health applications and telemedicine, digital devices are part of a widespread movement towards the biomedicalization of life, as well as the globalization and technologization of biomedicine. According to their promoters, digital technologies will improve care, reduce health inequalities, and optimize healthcare systems. This thematic issue looks at the emergence of new global health spaces and circuits as a result of digitalization. It also aims to explore the emergence of new forms of power, control, and resistance. To this end, it brings together empirical and theoretical contributions questioning the relationship between digital technology and health, divided into three thematic axes. The first axis brings together articles studying the emergence of new actors in the field of healthcare and the changing roles of the actors involved. The second looks at changes in health administration techniques and healthcare professionals’ practices. Finally, the last section looks at changes in patients' experience of digital healthcare.
