Distribution of health is one of the challenges facing the Nordic countries and Europe. Although health and life expectancy have improved in the Nordic countries, inequalities in the distribution of health persist. The difference in mortality rates among different socio-economic groups, for instance, has grown greater. Although inequalities in the distribution of health may be viewed as a health-economic problem, this is above all an egalitarian issue related to the future development of the welfare state. The report gives an overview of research activities, funding and funding systems of relevance to research on health and welfare-related issues in the Nordic countries 2005-2010. Based on these findings, the report also provides policy recommendations to Nordic political circles, research funding agencies and NordForsk.

Die Vorstellung, das Gesundheitssystem könne alles für Alle leisten, erweist sich als Illusion. Aus diesem Grund ist eine ethische Debatte um Verteilungskriterien, Prioritäten, Rationierung und Grenzen medizinischer Leistungen unumgänglich geworden. Wie können Gerechtigkeit und Effizienz, unbedingte Menschenwürde und Rationierung zusammengedacht werden? Die Reihe „Sozialethik konkret“ greift diese vielschichtige Problematik auf und diskutiert Fragen der Gerechtigkeit im Gesundheitswesen aus der Sicht unterschiedlicher wissenschaftlicher Disziplinen. Dabei wird der spezifische, wissenschaftliche Lösungsbeitrag der Christlichen Sozialethik zu dieser politischen und wirtschaftlichen Gestaltungsaufgabe herausgearbeitet. Mit den kontroversen Beiträgen dieses Bandes sollen eine ausgewogene Beurteilung der Gesundheitsthematik erreicht, Vorschläge zur konkreten Gestaltung von Reformprozessen und Strukturveränderungen erarbeitet und offene und weiterführende Fragestellungen identifiziert werden.

Personnes précaires, personnes âgées, patients atteints de pathologies multiples ou chroniques, migrants... En France aujourd'hui, un grand nombre de ces patients dits « complexes » ne bénéficient pas d'un accès aux soins. Pareil constat remet en cause la performance de notre système de santé et les acquis de l'assurance maladie pour tous. Depuis vingt ans, des professionnels et acteurs de santé innovent pour un accès aux soins et à la santé pour tous et partout. C'est le cas dans les permanences d'accès aux soins de santé (PASS), comme la policlinique Baudelaire de l'hôpital Saint-Antoine (AP-HP). Des professionnels de la prise en charge de ces patients complexes, qui ont participé à ces initiatives originales, témoignent ici de leurs savoir-faire?: parcours de santé global, coopération entre professionnels de santé et du social, recherches interdisciplinaires... Ils appellent de leurs vœux la création de centres de santé primaire polyvalents (CSPP), dont ils détaillent les éléments clés, à commencer par le caractère global de la prise en charge?: infirmière, médecin, assistante sociale, psychologue,?etc. Ces propositions d'organisation intégrée rejoignent celles portant sur la planification de la santé et l'instauration d'alloca-tions de ressources - autant d'innovations visant à réduire des inégalités de santé en constante augmentation. L'ouvrage s'ouvre sur un état des lieux de la précarité sanitaire en France. Il se clôt sur ces enjeux de santé qui sont aussi des enjeux de société, avec des contributions de Didier Tabuteau, Claude Evin, Xavier Emmanuelli, Élisabeth Tomé-Gertheinrichs... et une postface de Bernard Kouchner.

At the heart of relational theory lies the idea that the human self is fundamentally constituted in terms of its relations to others. For relational theorists, the self not only lives in relationship with and to others, but also owes its very existence to such relationships. In this groundbreaking collection, leading relational theorists explore core moral and metaphysical concepts, while health law and policy scholars respond by analyzing how such considerations might apply to more practical areas of concern. Innovative and self-reflexive, Being Relational brings a powerful theoretical framework to health law and policy studies. In so doing, it makes a bold contribution to scholarship and will appeal to a broad range of thinkers, especially those with an interest in social justice, and who seek to understand the complex ways in which power is created and sustained relationally.
