International audience ; Encounters between several bodies of therapeutic knowledge have led to a restructuring of the entire health system, including a transformation in medical ethics. Defining "new ethics" with both Chinese and international characteristics, is part of the ongoing knowledge production process: plural health ideas, practices and medical sciences develop within the broader framework of social and economic transition. Such transition simultaneously reveals and encourages China's influence and position in an era of globalization including in the technical and knowledge production domains. Re-alignments in medical ethics in Reform China (post-1979) highlight a rather under-explored aspect of medical plurality enabling these ethics to be used as an analytical lens to provide information about social and political issues. In this article, two sets of ethical principles, one from Late Imperial China (Late Ming Era), the other from post-Mao China (1980s), are detailed and analysed. They were selected as case-studies mainly because they reflected at the time of their emergence an on-going radical change in society in the realm of health and medicine. Therefore both sets unveil the process of legitimizing a "Chinese medicine" in a context of epistemological shift: such a process takes various conceptual and practical forms framed along the lines of the current dominant ideological system and constrained by socio-economic and political factors. Finally, issues relative to research ethics, bioethics and the New Health Reform guidelines raised in the 2000s, which represents also a significant historical turn for China, are discussed. Drawn from the overall discussion throughout the text, several concluding remarks contribute to advocate for "win-win" encounters - from the East to the West and from the South to the South, and for more implementable transnational/global ethics designing. ; La rencontre entre plusieurs savoirs thérapeutiques donne lieu à une restructuration du système de santé et de facto à ...

"Addresses topics of the highest significance for multiple disciplines--anthropology, sociology, gender studies, Asian studies, religion, geography, political science, and history. This engagingly written booklet--designed for use in undergraduate humanities and social science courses, as well as by advanced high school students and their teachers--has great potential for use in the classroom, encouraging debate and discussion. It will also appeal to specialists in the field owing to Peletz's ability to present sophisticated yet accessible discussions of a broad range of topics. Drawing on the vast body of scholarship by those who have either grown up in the region or spent many years engaged in anthropological fieldwork or other research, Peletz provides a masterful overview of gender, sexuality, and body politics in modern Asia, presenting multiple perspectives in an accessible, jargon-free style"--

International audience ; Résumé de l'ouvrage dont fait partie ce chapitre dans la rubrique "PARTIE 3 - L'INTERNATIONALISATION DES SAVOIRS":L'une des caractéristiques de la société actuelle est la multiplication de nouveaux espaces de partage des savoirs. En effet, le savoir n'est plus uniquement l'apanage d'une catégorie de la population qui la transférerait au reste du monde. Il est le résultat d'une co-construction dans laquelle l'expertise naît de l'intelligence collective. Les réseaux sociaux et les nombreuses plateformes construites à cet effet révèlent de nouvelles dynamiques s'inscrivant dans des politiques publiques appropriées. Cet ouvrage porte sur l'analyse de ces différents réseaux, des dynamiques qui les sous-tendent et des politiques publiques sur lesquelles ils reposent.

The development of the 1988 Family Support Act of 1988 in the US House of Representatives is chronicled, considering the impact of research on the policy environment that made welfare reform possible, the arguments presented in committee hearings & bill-writing sessions, the House debate, & the final House/Senate Conference Committee approval. It is concluded that social science research can & does play a useful role in formulation of public policy, although the domain of application is not as broad as many scholars think. However, given the partisan nature of policy formulation & the desire of social scientists to join the process, normal methods of quality control in social science research are too often forgotten, to the detriment of sound public decision making. 30 References.

This volume describes the development and application of the Mmogo-method® as a projective visual data-gathering method, applied in different contexts and with different groups of people. "Mmogo" means togetherness in Setswana, one of the 11 official languages of South Africa. The Mmogo-method® provides a deep understanding of personal, relational and group experiences and is particularly useful in cross-cultural contexts and across age groups. By allowing visual expressions of the self as a complex, dynamic social system it overcomes some of the limitations of traditional data-collection methods, such as questionnaires or interviews. The book draws together contributions by leading social scientists to show how this flexible, visual data-collection method can be used independently or jointly with other data-gathering techniques, such as journalling or in-depth interviewing, to acquire rich information. The research method described here enables investigators to access perceptions, feelings and personal experiences participants might otherwise find hard to verbalize and explain. Researchers in disciplines such as education, social sciences, consumer sciences, market research, and city and town planning will find this book and its innovative method particularly valuable in addressing a gap in available visual and other data collection resources

Introduction : l'exercice coordonné est présenté par les pouvoirs publics comme la solution aux nouveaux enjeux socio-économico-démographiques. Objectif : étudier comment l'exercice coordonné facilite la prise en charge des patients âgés sur leur lieu de vie. Matériel et méthode : six Focus Groups réalisés en Corse, analysés selon une méthode thématique en utilisant un critère sémantique avec le logiciel NVIVO. Résultats : l'organisation des visites à domicile est fluidifiée. On retrouve une meilleure communication et collaboration entre les professionnels avec les Réunions de concertation pluri professionnelles. Le recours aux réseaux gérontologiques facilite la prise en charge sociale au domicile. Les subventions ont permis de développer des projets innovants pour la promotion de la santé (prévention, éducation thérapeutique). Les avis sur les outils de communication (Globule) sont mitigés. La communication Ville-Hôpital (partage d'informations et retours d'hospitalisation) n'a pas évolué de façon significative. Certaines thérapeutiques sont toujours inaccessibles. Les contraintes administratives peuvent constituer un frein majeur au développement des équipes. Conclusion : l'organisation des soins primaires en exercice coordonné est une des solutions aux enjeux actuels. Elle facilite la prise en charge des patients âgés sur leur lieu de vie. Cet exercice permet une meilleure coordination entre les soignants, un renforcement de l'accessibilité aux soins, le dépistage de la fragilité, la prévention et l'éducation thérapeutique. Il favorise donc à long terme le maintien au domicile. Concernant les perspectives d'avenir, les soignants attendent plus de moyens, un travail sur l'articulation des parcours de soins des patients entre la ville et l'hôpital. Le rôle des futures Communautés professionnelles territoriales de santé reste à définir.
