Improving Health Sector Performance
There is growing international evidence that the effectiveness of health services stems primarily from the extent to which the incentives facing providers and consumers are aligned with ""better health"" objectives. Efficiency in health service provision requires that providers and consumers have incentives to use healthcare resources in ways that generate the maximum health gains. Equity in at least one sense requires that consumers requiring the same care are treated equally, irrespective of their ability to pay. Efficiency in the use of health services requires that consumers are knowledgeable about the services on offer and which are most appropriate to their needs. The papers in this volume are selected from an international conference organised by the CDRI, Cambodia, that tried to deal with some of these issues. With participation of international and local experts, it aimed at collecting major experiences and innovative solutions from inside and outside the country to improve health sector performance, with particular focus on institutions, motivations and incentives.
Global Handbook of Health Promotion Research, Vol. 1
While research teams are producing relevant and valid knowledge for health promotion, there is not yet a structured manual and distinct field of health promotion research. This timely "state-of-the-art" handbook contributes to the structuring of such a field of research. This collection of original contributions explores the major epistemological, methodological, and ethical challenges facing health promotion research. It brings together experts from different "research traditions" that coexist in the field. The handbook covers the existing knowledge production and sharing practices to delineate the "discipline" and its agenda for future research. Ultimately, it contributes to the creation o...

Diálogos Bucaleiros
O Grupo Temático de Saúde Bucal Coletiva da Associação Brasileira de Saúde Coletiva ̶ GT SBC ABRASCO, foi criado no ano de 2007 e atua na defesa da saúde bucal como um direito da população brasileira. Esse livro foi produzido em um esforço colaborativo dos quarenta e três membros getistas diante da dura realidade que a Covid-19 apresenta e o cenário político alimenta tragicamente. Com a pandemia, os espaços virtuais de discussão ̶ as chamadas “lives” ̶ assumiram um papel importante para a interconectividade, a criação de diálogos, o compartilhamento de conhecimento científico, ideias, experiências, geografias, opiniões e saberes. Nesse contexto, o GT SBC protagonizou parcerias com pesquisadores, estudantes e profissionais de saúde, que resultaram nas discussões compiladas neste e-Book.
Repertório bibliográfico sobre a condição do negro no Brasil
Pesquisadores, estudiosos e cidadãos interessados na situação do negro no Brasil muitas vezes têm dificuldade de encontrar fontes de pesquisa confiáveis. Obter informações embasadas cientificamente, avaliar a veracidade, checar as fontes e ter um olhar crítico sobre o conteúdo encontrado não é tarefa fácil. Pensando em auxiliar o trabalho de quem precisa encontrar e filtrar referências entre tantas disponíveis, a Câmara dos Deputados, por iniciativa do Programa Pró-Equidade de Gênero e Raça e da Biblioteca da Câmara dos Deputados, organizou esse guia de fontes de pesquisa sobre a temática racial no país. O livro reúne uma bibliografia abrangente e diversificada sobre a condição do negro, facilitando o acesso a artigos que informam, debatem, analisam, refletem e denunciam a questão racial ao longo da história do Brasil até os dias atuais. Com esta publicação, a Câmara dos Deputados reafirma o seu compromisso com a promoção da igualdade racial no país.
A Tutela do Vulnerável no Processo Adversarial
A inserção e a permanência calibradas do vulnerável na relação processual é premissa de legitimação do próprio processo. Negar, ou em qualquer grau restringir sua participação dada a sua condição, converte a relação processual em palco oficial de arbitrariedades, capaz de colocar em cena uma face violenta e covarde do Estado. O processo civil precisa contar com instrumental eficiente para superação da vulnerabilidade. Se a relação processual, elaborada a partir do ideal de monopólio da jurisdição, não serve a frear o ímpeto do mais forte, de nada serve. Seria o caso, nessa condição, de regressarmos ao modelo processual experimentado no paradigma de Estado Liberal. ...
