Abstract:

During the Jim Crow era, Florida’s public health nurses, mostly white and a few black women, tackled the state’s public health issues born of race, climate, geography, and poverty. These pioneering professional women were often the only ones available to deliver current health improvement information into the homes of people who were out of the reach of modern medical care. From Florida’s Panhandle to the Everglades and on to the Keys, they faced a number of challenges to reach both white and African American people in rural communities. Like the nurses in other states of the South and the North, they drew strength from their professional identity, but in confronting Florida’s unique challenges, their determination to save lives set them apart as they battled the state’s daunting environmental and cultural obstacles. They found innovative ways to build a bridge between the communities they served and public health policies, both state and federal, that addressed the threats of infection and the high infant and maternal mortality levels. Competing cultural constructions of health shaped their groundbreaking efforts to reach and serve underprivileged members of each race, whether to prevent illness and disease or to improve childbirth and general wellbeing.

Abstract:

This book offers unique insights into happiness and wellbeing as well as the challenges facing happiness researchers. A wide range of academics discuss their ethnographic, biographical and life history projects illustrating some of the difficulties of developing critical, qualitative approaches to wellbeing research. The book focuses on the everyday social practices around wellbeing that have often been neglected by happiness research, offering intriguing insights into the often hidden world of the research process. Contributors explore some of the problems they encountered doing their research and the techniques they developed to overcome them. It explores issues such as: how to operationalise definitions of happiness in ethnographic research? How to conduct happiness research in different cultural contexts? How to interview participants about social class, gender and happiness? How to relate notions such as structure and agency, biography and the life course to happiness research? How can visual materials be used with interviewees to explore happiness experiences? What theories can we use to study happiness in qualitative research? This combination of research findings and methodological insight will ensure the text appeals to a diverse readership from undergraduate students to academic researchers in the social sciences.

Oberdiek, John. The Moral Significance of Risking. Oxford University Press, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780199594054.003.0004.

Full text

Abstract:

Chapter 3 explores the moral significance of risking. What is it about imposing risk upon others that matters morally? This is a live and vexing question in large part because the concept of imposing risk owes its place in our conceptual scheme to our epistemic bounds. The chapter argues against the view that risk inherits what moral significance it has from the harm that any risk imposition risks. It argues instead that risk impositions as such bear moral significance because they can have a negative impact on people’s lives and thus constitute harms, though not material harms. For imposing risk can diminish the autonomy of those subject to the risk, and this diminution in autonomy constitutes a setback to wellbeing. It does not follow that imposing risk is therefore wrong. Rather, that imposing risk can diminish autonomy shows why imposing risk is morally significant and therefore calls for moral justification.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter empirically investigates “the Hobbesian hypothesis” (the claim that everyone is better off in a state society with a private property system than they could reasonably expect to be in any society without either of those institutions). It does so in two ways: first, it makes ad hoc qualitative comparisons of the lives of disadvantaged people in capitalist state societies with people in observed, small-scale stateless societies in terms of social and cultural satisfaction, material wellbeing, the availability of luxuries, leisure and work effort, basic needs, health and longevity, and freedom. Second, it assesses actions and expressed preferences of people with the opportunity to choose either lifestyle. Although evidence indicates that the average person tends to be better off in most contemporary state societies, the concludes the hypothesis is false. Contemporary states allow so much inequality—with a bottom so low in absolute terms—that significant numbers of their citizens are worse off than people in a small-scale stateless societies.

Abstract:

Ensuring epidemiological safety as a component of the quality and safety of medical ser-vices requires the introduction of new methods of prevention, diagnosis and treatment of health care-associated infections (HAIs) into clinical practice.The high prevalence of HAIs in medical organizations of various specialties, significant damage to the health of the population, the economy and the demographic situation all over the world determine the relevance of their prevention at the present time.Conference abstracts were submitted by leading epidemiologists, young researchers and medical practitioners. The published materials contain data on the organization of epidemio-logical surveillance of HAIs, methods of their diagnosis and epidemiological investigation, on the sensitivity of etiological agents to antibiotics, bacteriophages and disinfectants, examples of complex measures for the non-specific prevention of nosocomial infections.Conference abstracts are of interest to epidemiologists, hygienists, microbiologists, specialists of the Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Wellbeing, disinfectologists, teachers of secondary and higher educational institutions.

Full text

Abstract:

Focusing on mental health rather than mental illness, this book adopts a life course approach to understanding mental health and wellbeing in later life. Drawing together material from the fields of sociology, psychology, critical social gerontology, the mental health field, and life course studies, it analyses the meaning and determinants of mental health amongst older populations and offers a critical review of existing discourse. The book explores the intersecting influences of lifecourse experiences, social and structural inequalities, socio-political context, history, gender and age-related factors and demands an approach to prevention and resolution that appreciates the embedded, complex and multi-faceted nature of threats to mental health and ways to protect it. It foregrounds engagement with the perspectives and lived experiences of older people, including people living with dementia, and makes the case for a paradigmatic shift in conceptualising, exploring and researching mental health issues and supporting older people with mental health problems. The book is essential reading for policy makers, health and social care professionals and students, third sector agencies, researchers and all of those concerned to more effectively and collaboratively address mental health issues in later life.
