Summary This case study focuses on the use of ethnographic methods to study global processes, with a focus on how international institutions create policies that are meant to be globally relevant. Specifically, it examines the role of the World Health Organization in setting global norms and standards in health, with case studies on two World Health Organization policy documents 'Set of Recommendations on the Marketing of foods and Non-alcoholic Beverages to Children' and the 'WHO/UNICEF International Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes'
