The Political Economy of HIV/AIDS in Developing Countries
The issue of universal and free access to treatment is now a fundamental goal of the international community. Based on original data and field studies from Brazil, Thailand, India and Sub-Saharan Africa under the aegis of ANRS (the French nationalagency for research on Aids and viral hepatitis, this timely and significant book both assesses the progress made in achieving this objective and presents a rigorous diagnosis of the obstacles that remain. Placing particular emphasis on the constraints imposed by TRIPS as well as the poor state of most public health systems in Southern countries, the contributing authors provide a comprehensive analysis of the huge barriers that have yet to be overc...

Pharmaceutical Autonomy and Public Health in Latin America
Brazil has occupied a central role in the access to medicines movement, especially with respect to drugs used to treat those with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) that causes the acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS).

Inovação em Portugal
Portugal investe atualmente cerca de 2.500 milhões de euros por ano em investigação científica e tecnológica e desde há mais de uma década que a palavra inovação se instalou no discurso empresarial e no das políticas públicas. Neste contexto a presente obra propõe uma avaliação do estado da inovação no nosso país, dotando o leitor de informação essencial e capacidade de julgamento objectivo sobre estas matérias. O livro evidencia que se registaram importantes avanços ao longo das últimas décadas, tendo-se constituído e consolidado competências críticas em certos domínios, embora permaneçam outros domínios de maior fragilidade. A capacidade de harmonizar o sistema nacional de inovação será a chave para um desenvolvimento mais sustentável do que temos tido.
