Résumé :
|
In this new book by the award-winning author of "Just Health Care", Norman Daniels develops a comprehensive theory of justice for health that answers three questions : What is the special moral importance of health ? When are health inequalities injust ? How can we meet health needs fairly when we cannot meet them all ? The theory has implications for national and global health policy : Can we meet health needs fairly in aging societies ? Or protect health in the workplace while respecting individual liberty ? Or meet professional obligations and obligations of justice without conflict ? When is health reform or the selection of patients for treatment for HIV or coverage for catastrophic health benefits fair ? When is an effort to reduce health disparities or to set priorities in realizing a human right to health fair ? What do richer, healthier societies owe poorer, sicker societies ? "Just Health Needs Fairly" explores the many ways that social justice is good for the health of populations in developed and developing countries.
