This book was released on 2000-04-01 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Em especial nas últimas duas décadas tem-se assistido ao incremento de esforços por parte de alguns países no sentido de melhorar a qualidade dos serviços de saúde para as suas populações cada vez mais multiculturais. Contudo, continuam a observar-se diferenças entre grupos étnicos no que diz respeito a padrões de saúde e condições de acesso aos serviços disponíveis. Um relatório recente da Organização Mundial para as Migrações (IOM, 2005) alerta para a necessidade de se adoptar na Europa políticas de saúde integradoras e “culturalmente sensíveis”. Isto é, políticas que visem o desenvolvimento e prestação de serviços de saúde sensíveis ao background social, cultural e religioso dos utentes. Como é defendido no mesmo relatório, este tipo de abordagem assume-se fundamental numa Europa cada vez mais multicultural e mais dependente de uma força de trabalho estrangeira activa e saudável. Em linhas gerais, têm vindo a ser defendidas dois tipos de abordagens no que respeita à promoção de políticas e do acesso dos imigrantes aos serviços de saúde. A primeira tem vindo a assumir uma ideologia “assimilacionista”, ou seja, é defendida a adaptação dos imigrantes aos cuidados de saúde existentes na sociedade de acolhimento. Já a segunda abordagem assume uma posição “multiculturalista” que defende a implementação de serviços adaptados às necessidades dos utentes de acordo com uma perspectiva sensível às diferenças culturais. Um exemplo deste segundo tipo de abordagem é o caso da Holanda, onde foram criados serviços específicos para imigrantes, entre eles, um centro para a promoção de conhecimento sobre a saúde imigrante com “mediadores culturais”. Neste âmbito, este trabalho procurou, a partir de estudos de caso de imigrantes cabo-verdianos, analisar os serviços de saúde da Holanda. Para este efeito, foram analisadas as perspectivas dos cabo-verdianos relativamente às características que definem um bom médico, assim como as suas expectativas e experiências com profissionais de saúde na Holanda. Ainda que o caso holandês seja um exemplo de uma abordagem “multiculturalista”, no trabalho de terreno identificaram-se três barreiras no acesso de imigrantes aos cuidados de saúde: a falta de informação sobre os serviços de saúde disponíveis; problemas de relação entre utentes de origem imigrante e os profissionais de saúde; e, finalmente, dificuldades sentidas pelos os utentes imigrantes em lidar com a condicionalidade da ajuda prestada. Estes problemas encontram-se profundamente interligados e estão relacionados com dois tipos de factores. Ao nível macro, estes incluem características organizacionais e estruturais do sistema de saúde holandês. Ao nível micro, os problemas encontrados derivam do desfasamento de expectativas entre caboverdianos e profissionais de saúde relativamente à forma pela qual os cuidados de saúde são prestados. Apesar das barreiras encontradas, os cabo-verdianos não poupam esforços para beneficiar de boa saúde, colocando em prática duas estratégias com o objectivo de aceder a cuidados de saúde de boa qualidade. Por um lado, os cabo-verdianos tentam adaptar o seu comportamento enquanto utentes dos serviços (help-seeking behaviour) ao modelo prevalecente na Holanda. Por outro lado, recorrem ao uso de cuidados de saúde transnacionais noutros países da Europa, incluindo Portugal e França. Estas estratégias corroboram a perseverança dos cabo-verdianos em encontrar os cuidados de saúde que melhor se adequam às suas necessidades.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The phenomenal growth of global pharmaceutical sales and the quest for innovation are driving an unprecedented search for human test subjects, particularly in middle- and low-income countries. Our hope for medical progress increasingly depends on the willingness of the world's poor to participate in clinical drug trials. While these experiments often provide those in need with vital and previously unattainable medical resources, the outsourcing and offshoring of trials also create new problems. In this groundbreaking book, anthropologist Adriana Petryna takes us deep into the clinical trials industry as it brings together players separated by vast economic and cultural differences. Moving between corporate and scientific offices in the United States and research and public health sites in Poland and Brazil, When Experiments Travel documents the complex ways that commercial medical science, with all its benefits and risks, is being integrated into local health systems and emerging drug markets. Providing a unique perspective on globalized clinical trials, When Experiments Travel raises central questions: Are such trials exploitative or are they social goods? How are experiments controlled and how is drug safety ensured? And do these experiments help or harm public health in the countries where they are conducted? Empirically rich and theoretically innovative, the book shows that neither the language of coercion nor that of rational choice fully captures the range of situations and value systems at work in medical experiments today. When Experiments Travel challenges conventional understandings of the ethics and politics of transnational science and changes the way we think about global medicine and the new infrastructures of our lives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Will to Live tells how Brazil, against all odds, became the first developing country to universalize access to life-saving AIDS therapies--a breakthrough made possible by an unexpected alliance of activists, government reformers, development agencies, and the pharmaceutical industry. But anthropologist João Biehl also tells why this policy, hailed as a model worldwide, has been so difficult to implement among poor Brazilians with HIV/AIDS, who are often stigmatized as noncompliant or untreatable, becoming invisible to the public. More broadly, Biehl examines the political economy of pharmaceuticals that lies behind large-scale treatment rollouts, revealing the possibilities and inequalities that come with a magic bullet approach to health care. By moving back and forth between the institutions shaping the Brazilian response to AIDS and the people affected by the disease, Biehl has created a book of unusual vividness, scope, and detail. At the core of Will to Live is a group of AIDS patients--unemployed, homeless, involved with prostitution and drugs--that established a makeshift health service. Biehl chronicled the personal lives of these people for over ten years and Torben Eskerod represents them here in more than one hundred stark photographs. Ethnography, social medicine, and art merge in this unique book, illuminating the care and agency needed to extend life amid perennial violence. Full of lessons for the future, Will to Live promises to have a lasting influence in the social sciences and in the theory and practice of global public health.

Book excerpt: The books in the Florida and the Caribbean Open Books Series demonstrate the University Press of Florida’s long history of publishing Latin American and Caribbean studies titles that connect in and through Florida, highlighting the connections between the Sunshine State and its neighboring islands. Books in this series show how early explorers found and settled Florida and the Caribbean. They tell the tales of early pioneers, both foreign and domestic. They examine topics critical to the area such as travel, migration, economic opportunity, and tourism. They look at the growth of Florida and the Caribbean and the attendant pressures on the environment, culture, urban development, and the movement of peoples, both forced and voluntary. The Florida and the Caribbean Open Books Series gathers the rich data available in these architectural, archaeological, cultural, and historical works, as well as the travelogues and naturalists’ sketches of the area in prior to the twentieth century, making it accessible for scholars and the general public alike. The Florida and the Caribbean Open Books Series is made possible through a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, under the Humanities Open Books program.

Book excerpt: The Carandiru House of Detention, in the teeming city of São Paulo, was the largest and most crowded prison in Latin America. Known as the 'Old House', it was also highly unusual in the way it was governed. Closed to the outside world, and even largely to the wardens, it was run almost entirely by the inmates themselves, who created a unique society complete with politics, hierarchies and a system of justice. In 1989, at the height of the AIDS epidemic in Brazil, with only a handful of physicians attempting to treat an inmate population of over 7,000, the medical situation at Carandiru was dire. A city doctor, Drauzio Varella, volunteered his time at Carandiru over the course of thirteen years, in an effort to combat the rampant disease. As he gained the inmates' trust he was given access to their society, where he was overwhelmed by the profound humanity and freedom of spirit shown by these men, despite their terrible crimes and the inhuman conditions in which they lived. Lockdown is Varella's powerful depiction of life on the inside, wherein he recounts the prisoners' colourful and surprising stories. The book ends with the massacre by the police of the prisoners that ultimately brought down the 'Old House'.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problems we face in the 21st century require innovative thinking from all of us. Be it students, academics, business researchers of government policy makers. Hopes for improving our healthcare, food supply, community safety and environmental sustainability depend on the pervasive application of research solutions. The research heroes who take on the immense problems of our time face bigger than ever challenges, but if they adopt potent guiding principles and effective research lifecycle strategies, they can produce the advances that will enhance the lives of many people. These inspirational research leaders will break free from traditional thinking, disciplinary boundaries, and narrow aspirations. They will be bold innovators and engaged collaborators, who are ready to lead, yet open to new ideas, self-confident, yet empathetic to others. In this book, Ben Shneiderman recognizes the unbounded nature of human creativity, the multiplicative power of teamwork, and the catalytic effects of innovation. He reports on the growing number of initiatives to promote more integrated approaches to research so as to promote the expansion of these efforts. It is meant as a guide to students and junior researchers, as well as a manifesto for senior researchers and policy makers, challenging widely-held beliefs about how applied innovations evolve and how basic breakthroughs are made, and helping to plot the course towards tomorrow's great advancements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban Claims and the Right to the City explores how contested processes of urban development, and the rights of city dwellers, are understood and interpreted from the perspective of women and men working, in different ways, at the grassroots in Salvador da Bahia, Brazil, and London, UK. In doing so, it represents the grounded voices of authors whose work and lives mean that they engage, on a daily basis, with issues related to housing and spatial rights, and identity struggles around race, gender, disability, sexuality, citizenship and class.
