Perspectives on Strategic Change
Luca Zan, Stefano Zambon, Andrew M. Pettigrew This book has developed from an international research workshop organ ized by the Dipartimento di Economia e Direzione Aziendale, University of Venice, and the Centre for Corporate Strategy and Change, Warwick Business School, University of Warwick. The purpose of the workshop was to foster the growth of a European network of scholars and to help create a "European perspective" in studying strategic change. The ten chapters in this book were first presented in Venice in May 1991 and have been substantially revised since then. The ten commentaries on the chapters are in most cases substantial developments of the oral responses made at the workshop...
The EuroQol Group after 25 years
The EuroQol Group first met in Rotterdam in May 1987 determined to develop a standardised non-disease-specific instrument for valuing health-related quality of life. The book traces the activities of the Group over the next 25 years. The instrument constructed, eventually named the EQ-5D, was translated into many languages and used in a wide range of countries and settings. The book describes how the instrument’s descriptive system was determined, how translation and language issues were handled, and how valuations were provided. Recent developments, in particular a 5-level version (EQ-5D-5L), and a youth version (EQ-5D-Y) are covered. The history of the institutional and administrative framework within which the Group operated is also treated.

L'optimum d'injustice sociale
Cet "observateur fécond et minutieux", comme l'a remarqué Alfred Sauvy, retrace dans « L'optimum d'injustice sociale » - les trois étapes d'évolution du système de protection sociale, qui s'est généralisé en Europe, avec un profond malentendu sur sa finalité. Espoir d'égalité et de justice sociale à ses origines, la Sécurité sociale devient un instrument politique pour la recherche d'un optimum d'injustice sociale. Mais, en attendant l'après État providence, une communauté nationale peut-elle s'abstenir longtemps de fixer son choix entre une obligation : la solidarité, qui appelle "le droit à la santé" pour tous, et une convention : l'assurance, fondée plutôt sur "le droit aux soins" ? Quand le déséquilibre financier - et le libéralisme ambiant - font planer la menace de la privatisation sur la protection sociale, les échos peu rassurants d'Outre-Atlantique suffiront-ils pour mobiliser démocrates, progressistes et humanistes autour d'une valeur sûre : la solidarité ?
Le patient a-t-il pris le pouvoir?
Les intervenants questionnent les changements survenus dans la gestion des relations entre médecins et patients au cours des dernières années. Ils évoquent l'émergence des associations de patients, les droits des patients, leurs choix, leur rôle dans la recherche et leur implication dans les choix collectifs de santé, pour proposer ensuite une sociologie des liens entre praticiens et soignés.
Conflicts of Interest and the Future of Medicine
In this book, Marc Rodwin examines the development of conflicts of interest in the health care systems of the US, France, and Japan. He shows that national differences in the organization of medical practice and the interplay of organized medicine, the market, and the state give rise to variations in the type and prevalence of such conflicts, and then analyzes the strategies that each nation employs to cope with them. Drawing on the experiences of these three nations, Conflicts of Interest and the Future of Medicine demonstrates that we can mitigate these problems with carefully planned reform and regulation.
