| Summary: | [EN] The collaboration agreed in between the Rockefeller Foundation and the Spanish Government started with the arrival of a New Yorker physician and public health expert, Charles A. Bailey (born in 1876). He was committed to the study of Hookworm disease in mines as well as to the survey of the general situation of health in Spain, looking to possible areas of common interest. This article reveals the broad contents of his Report on Public Health in Spain, sent out in April 1926, which argues the final recommendations of his mission. Some excerpts are reproduced in Appendix. American and Spanish current standards of health administration were set far apart, as this Report shows, but, noteworthy, there was a great closeness between the ethical basis of the Foundation's main arguments and the critical stance against public administration sustained by Spanish leftist liberals and intellectuals. |
