Abstract

Nunca os pobres foram tão desgraçadamente pobres, nem os ricos tão despudoradamente ricos. Nunca os trabalhadores foram tão mal tratados, nem os desempregados tão denegridos. Vivemos uma situação de absoluta precariedade social, cívica e laboral. Não há pudor nem vergonha nem um assomo de solidariedade por parte dos que têm obrigação de governar com justiça e prover aos mais carenciados. Querem desmantelar o Estado Social, destruir o Serviço Nacional de Saúde e apagar os direitos fundamentais [...] Cabe aos políticos sérios que ainda resistem aos interesses instalados e às seduções da vanglória, especialmente à esquerda, mas também aos que sobrevivem nos partidos da direita democrática, derrubar o muro que encobre o Sol e deixar que ele ilumine de novo a palavra-chave que abre as portas do futuro e fecunda os direitos fundamentais e a Constituição da República: a Solidariedade [...].

Abstract

Les besoins de la population en matière de soins de santé et les pratiques cliniques évoluent dans un contexte hospitalier que d’aucuns jugent en pleine restructuration. Au cœur de toutes les grandes réformes politiques, en France comme au Québec, la réorganisation du système de santé est annoncée partout comme la priorité qui devrait permettre de résoudre tous les maux. Pourtant, si cette volonté politique de changement est clairement affichée, il reste que les stratégies de mise en œuvre sont souvent mal accueillies par les médecins et le personnel soignant qui doivent composer au quotidien avec un manque flagrant de ressources. Dans cet ouvrage, les restructurations ne sont pas considérées comme une simple solution miraculeuse apportée par les gestionnaires ou une réponse rationnelle imposée par les exigences de la pratique clinique. En présentant le paysage institutionnel de la France et du Québec, les auteurs adoptent résolument une approche qui enrichit notre compréhension des changements structurels. Les transformations y sont analysées sur le plan national et celui des dynamiques locales, pointant les singularités et les problèmes spécifiques de ressources, les initiatives individuelles et collectives, les logiques professionnelles qui déterminent le déclenchement et les trajectoires de restructuration. Avec cette réflexion rigoureuse et approfondie sur le dispositif hospitalier, une nouvelle étape est franchie qui permet l’émergence de nouveaux modèles pour penser les restructurations.

Abstract

Many government bodies relate to each other through 'contracts'. These are not regulated or enforced by the law. Drawing on the results of a case-study of NHS contracts, this book identifies problems faced by the parties to internal government contracts.

Abstract

The half century between 1885 and 1935 witnessed an unprecedented expansion of preventive and therapeutic services offered by the state through its local authorities. Behind the expansion in public services were also profound changes in attitudes toward poverty and dependency and toward the political and cultural significance of health; changes in social policy and administration; and changes in the understanding of the causes of disease. This book examines this time of change through the ideas and experiences of one prominent participant, Sir Arthur Newsholme. Professor Eyler draws particular attention to Newsholme's role in constructing a highly successful local health programme; his tenure as the Medical Officer of the Local Government Board in Whitehall where he launched some of its boldest programmes including national health insurance; his post-retirement studies of international health systems; and his statistical and epidemiological studies and their connection to his policy recommendations.

Abstract

This indispensable guide to the Affordable Care Act, our new national health care law, lends an insider's deep understanding of policy to a lively and absorbing account of the extraordinary-and extraordinarily ambitious-legislative effort to reform the nation's health care system. Dr. John E. McDonough, DPH, a health policy expert who served as an advisor to the late Senator Edward Kennedy, provides a vivid picture of the intense effort required to bring this legislation into law. McDonough clearly explains the ACA's inner workings, revealing the rich landscape of the issues, policies, and controversies embedded in the law yet unknown to most Americans. In his account of these historic events, McDonough takes us through the process from the 2008 presidential campaign to the moment in 2010 when President Obama signed the bill into law. At a time when the nation is taking a second look at the ACA, Inside National Health Reform provides the essential information for Americans to make informed judgments about this landmark law.
