En octobre 2007, le service d'évaluation médico-économique et de santé publique de la Haute Autorité de Santé a sollicité l'organisation d'un groupe de travail pour envisager la manière dont la sociologie pourrait contribuer aux travaux d'évaluation. Ce groupe de travail s'est réuni à huit reprises entre novembre 2007 et novembre 2008. Composé de sociologues, d'autres experts en sciences sociales (sciences politiques,anthropologie, économie) et de spécialistes en santé publique, il s'est attaché à cerner les dimensions sociologiques les plus pertinentes pour aborder les aspects sociaux de l'évaluation.

This article shows that an analysis of the impacts of immigration has to be divided into allocational and distributional aspects. From an allocational point of view, like free trade in goods, services and capital, migration is welfare-improving as long as marginal productivities of labor are not equalized worldwide. From a distributional point of view, however, the immigration society has to bear the effects of sharing its common public goods and its social values with the new immigrants. Free immigration will only be allowed if the allocational welfare gains exceed the distributional welfare losses. According to this rule of thumb, a guideline for an efficient migration policy is sketched.

Academics from a range of disciplines and from a number of European and Latin American countries come together to question what it means to have a 'sustainable society' and to ask what role alternative social and solidarity economies can play.

THIS PAPER ATTEMPTS TO UNDERSTAND THE MAIN LINES OF EMPHASIS IN THE RECENT DEVELOPMENT OF INSTITUTIONS CONCERNED WITH HUMAN RIGHTS EDUCATION AND RESEARCH IN LATIN AMERICA. A SOUNDLY BASED IDEA OF WHAT IS MEANT BY "EDUCATION" IS NECESSARY, AS WELL AS TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE PARTICULAR SOCIAL, ECONOMIC, POLITICAL AND CULTURAL CONTEXT IN LATIN AMERICA.

With the notable exception of the application of the metonymy model to explain stereotyping (Kristiansen, 2001), sociolinguistic language attitudes research has typically focused exclusively on explicit attitudes toward foreign accents without providing a cognitive model to explain how such attitudes are formed. At the same time, researchers in other fields have proposed the use of specific cognitive processing models such as the Elaboration Likelihood Model (Petty & Cacioppo, 1986) to explain the cognitive processes underlying reactions to foreign-accented speakers, without isolating foreign.

While the value of early detection of dementia is largely agreed upon, population-based screening as a means of early detection is controversial. This controversial status means that such screening is not recommended in most national dementia plans. Some current practices, however, resemble screening but are labelled "case-finding" or "detection of cognitive impairment". Labelled as such, they may avoid the ethical scrutiny that population-based screening may be subject to. This article examines conceptualizations of screening and case-finding. It shows how the definitions and delimitations of the concepts (the what of screening) are drawn into the ethical, political, and practical dimensions that screening assessment criteria or principles are intended to clarify and control (the how of screening, how it is and how it should be performed). As a result, different conceptualizations of screening provide the opportunity to rethink what ethical assessments should take place: the conceptualizations have different ethico-political implications. The article argues that population-based systematic screening, population-based opportunistic screening, and case-finding should be clearly distinguished. ; Funding: Linkoping University - Swedish Research Council [Dnr 2016-00781]

Paul Eisewicht untersucht, was passiert, wenn Kauferwartungen enttäuscht werden und sich Konsumenten an Anbieter wenden um zu reklamieren. Dabei schlägt er eine konsumsoziologische Reklamationsdefinition vor, die an der sozialen Realität des Reklamierens orientiert ist. Zum einen zeigt sich dadurch, dass Reklamationen (trotz rechtlicher und organisationaler Vorgaben) äußerst aushandlungsbedürftige Situationen sind (hinsichtlich der Verantwortlichkeit des Adressaten, der Triftigkeit des Problems und der Angemessenheit der Forderung). Zum anderen zeigt sich die Vielfalt im Handeln von Reklamier
