International Health Law & Ethics. Basic Documents. 4th revised edition (Reeks Maklu Wetteksten België & Nederland)
€ 49,00
International Health Law and Ethics. Basic Documents contains a collection of treaty documents and soft law on health care rights and health ethics, used in health law training programs. Regional documents and explanatory reports on health care rights, which are derived from international human rights law, provide a way of “unwrapping” government obligations in health care, making rights more specific, accessible and (judicially) accountable. In addition, soft law declarations and medical ethics contribute to understanding the moral meaning of human rights in health care. As such, the principles and standards provide practical guidance for States when dealing with equal access to health care services, the rights of (categories of) patients, biomedical research, organ donation and transplantation, genetics and public health. These topics structure the approach of International Health Law and Ethics.
This guide covers the basic documents, while general comments and explanatory reports amplify the principles embodied in the human rights treaties. The authoritative interpretations clarify a ‘European approach’ on the State’s obligations concerning health care rights and ethics. This volume is an initiative of the Erasmus Observatory on Health Law. It will be a helpful guide for all trainers, health care professionals and students interested in human rights issues in health care.

International Health Law. Solidarity and justice in health care
€ 53,50
In the twenty-first century, complex health care problems have remained
unsolved. Conflicts between public interests and individual rights,
evolving public health crises in low income countries, the challenge of
regulating health professionals, and the effects of globalisation on health
(care systems) dominate the contemporary debates in this field. In a way,
these problems expose the (regulatory) weaknesses of health systems
responding to these questions. Facing these problems, health lawyers
and policy makers should - more than in the past - focus on underlying
normative values in health care. Core values include solidarity and
justice in health care access.
This book explores the underlying normative values of health systems from a global and local perspective. Apart from examining country experiences, the authors provide an interesting and valuable contribution to the (inter)national legal and health policy debate on guaranteeing equal access to health care facilities, resisting a market or consumer-driven movement.
By explaining health systems in terms of access, solidarity and justice, International Health Law could contribute strengthening health systems, including equal access.
