Si la santé est un droit fondamental, tout le monde n'y accède pas de manière égale. La nécessité de cet accès s'inscrit largement dans les politiques publiques de lutte contre l'exclusion, la précarité ou l'isolement. Cependant, l'inégalité de l'accès à la santé s'avère plus délicate s'agissant des personnes vulnérables. Un accompagnement accru devient nécessaire, particulièrement lors de la prise de décisions portant sur leur santé. L'intitulé de cet ouvrage s'appuie sur deux notions fondamentales, "santé" et "vulnérabilité" , qui fondent les regards croisés des auteurs. La confrontation de ces deux termes aux définitions complexes - la santé avec ces aspects individuels et collectifs, et la vulnérabilité avec son caractère polymorphe - soulève de nombreuses problématiques dans des domaines très divers : consentement de l'enfant ou de l'adulte protégé, accès aux soins des étrangers ou des personnes détenues, vaccination, santé sexuelle, usage des drogues, etc. Pour répondre à ces différentes questions, le présent ouvrage rassemble les contributions rédigées par les étudiants de la promotion 2017-2018 du Master 2 "Droit des personnes vulnérables" sous la direction d'enseignants de la Faculté. L'ouvrage est également enrichi par les nombreux articles de spécialistes du sujet.

This open access book aims to clarify the term „evidence-based medicine“ (EBM) from a philosophy of science perspective. The author, Marie-Caroline Schulte discusses the importance of evi-dence in medical research and practice with a focus on the ethical and methodological prob-lems of EBM. The claims that EBM can herald a new theory of epistemology and a Kuhnian paradigm will be refuted. The solution is to describe EBM as a necessary development in medicine to deal with the increasing amount of evidence and medical data without loosing the single patient out of sight. Contents The methodology of evidence-based research Informed consent and shared decision making in EBM (Evidence-based medicine) Knowledge does not equal evidence – what to do with what we have evidence for? Homeopathy – a case in point why EBM is so important – or „the plural of anecdote is not data.“ Target Groups Lecturers and students in the areas of medicine and philosophy of medicine Researchers in philosophy of medicine, medical doctors, ethicists, philosophers and medical activists The Author M.-C. Schulte has studied philosophy and history in the US and finished her MSc in philoso-phy and history of science at LSE. She did her PhD in philosophy of science, focus on medi-cine, at Hamburg University. She works freelance in an advisory capacity for NGOs working in the medical field and writes articles in her area of expertise.

"This is the first book to unpack the legal and ethical issues surrounding unauthorised intimate examinations during labour. The book uses feminist, socio-legal and philosophical tools to explore the issues of power, vulnerability and autonomy. The collection challenges the perception that the law adequately addresses different manifestations of unauthorised medical touch through the lens of women's experiences of unauthorised vaginal examinations during labour. The book unearths several broader themes that are of huge significance to lawyers and healthcare professionals such as the legal status of women and their bodies. The book raises questions about women's experiences during childbirth in hospital settings. It explores the status of women's bodies during labour and childbirth where too easily they become objectified, and it raises important issues around consent. The book highlights links to the law on sexual offences and women's loss of power under the medical gaze. The book includes contributions from leading feminist philosophers, medical professionals, and academics in medicine and law, and offers pioneering analysis relevant to lawyers and healthcare professionals with an interest in medical law and ethics; feminist theory; criminal law; tort law; and human rights law"--
