Abstract:
Post-conflict, ‘fragile’ nations face significant health, social, economic and political challenges. The international community is, on the whole, organised and effective in assisting these nations to address urgent priorities. Often, however, prioritisation of immediate concerns has resulted in less focus being given to capacity building, including the fostering of lasting, effective and autonomous systems within these nations.This study examined the post-conflict, transitional nation of Timor-Leste. In particular, it focused on the potential for a health systems-strengthening approach, publi

Abstract:
The thesis takes as its subject the concept of accountability. It examines the use made of the concept in the public law literature, and advances a novel analytical model of the individual accountability mechanism. The model identifies the essential features of that mechanism: setting standards against which an account can be judged; requiring the person being called to account to explain and justify his or her actions; judging the account rendered against the standards set; and responding to the account rendered, where appropriate, with enforcement measures. This analytical approach provides

Abstract:
This work develops a means to encourage states to take advantage of the flexibilities of compulsory licensing in the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) which promotes access to medicines in a public health emergency. In pursuing this solution, the precautionary approach (PA) and the structure of risk analysis have been adopted as a means to build a workable reading of TRIPS and to help states embody the flexibilities of intellectual property (IP). This work argues for a PA reading of TRIPS and that states have the precautionary entitlements to determine

Abstract:
This thesis asks whether values, like government duty, individual responsibility, community and social justice, influence the way that scholars and research participants think about the use of law to prevent obesity. It explores the way participants speak about values when expressing their support for or against a variety of government regulatory interventions, including taxation, food labelling reforms and advertising restrictions.

Abstract:
This paper examines briefly the changing conceptions of HIV disease in the Canadian context. Historical reference is made to the increase in state involvement in the field of public health, and to the shift from an emphasis on environmental and behavioural factors to infectious agents as the causes of disease. The role of the state in the prevention of HIV disease is then discussed, with reference to human rights and changing perceptions of the role of the law. The paper then considers a specific issue: the criminal law and the sexual transmission of the virus. The Canadian legislation and cas

Abstract:
Efforts to encourage healthy behaviour often fail to bring about sustained changes in people’s lifestyles.

Incentives may provide an extra motivation to adopt healthy lifestyles, and structure behaviour change efforts in ways more conducive to success.

The South African health sector encounters significant challenges of inequality in terms of access to health care services. A ‘quadruplet burden of disease’ does not make access to health any easier. Patient’s access to health care can be hindered by the patient’s residential area. Rural patients are faced with hospitals that do not have specialist care while urban areas are swamped with patient who need specialist care. Medical general practitioners’ scope of practice is limited and that creates challenges when patients need specialised care in a resource constrained environment. The time

Abstract:
Shaken baby syndrome (SBS) is one of the most violent forms of physical child abuse. In 2007, the State of Ohio enacted a health education mandate known as Claire's law. Claire's law requires all birthing hospitals to provide SBS education to mothers prior to their discharge. This law is the result of public demand and advocacy initiatives; however, it was not clear how the mandate was developed or whether or not the mandate and subsequent educational programs have had an impact on efforts to prevent SBS. The purpose of this qualitative case study was to explore the state of Ohio's processes i

This thesis explores definition of five concepts central to international health intervention, participation, efficiency, equity, scaling up and sustainability, within the case study of the Tanzanian Essential Health Interventions Project (TEHIP). Developed in response to the 1993 World Development Report and implemented in Tanzania during the era of health sector reform under structural adjustment, TEHIP offers an especially pertinent case within which to explore the language and health practices resulting from this particular history and ideology.

Abstract:
Florida is one of 12 states that have a no-fault law. The first party benefit coverage is known as personal injury protection (PIP). Every policy sold in the state must include at least $10,000 in personal injury protection. This law went into effect in 1971 and is now being challenged. Changes in consumer, lawyer, and doctor behavior as well as changes in the legal and economic environment have diminished the positive impact of the no-fault law. This thesis will focus on the diminished effectiveness of the no-fault law in Florida. It will be based on research from primary sources. Other legal

Abstract:
Background: Sexual consent is often defined as the voluntary agreement to participate in a sexual act, though the differing definitions across and within countries make legal consensus difficult. In recent years, due to popularization through social media, nonconsensual condom removal, termed stealthing, is becoming common, especially among young adults. Yet, little to no empirical evidence exists on this sexual behavior. Methods: In this exploratory sequential mixed methods approach, we aimed to address the current perception of stealthing among young adults. College students were recruited f

As you probably know, to board the B777-300ERi in Geneva for Anchorage via London, is not just that simple. With your ticket you bought several days before, you come to the airport, check in, pay airport's fees, go through the customs and security checks, walk in the terminal following signs, maybe you stop in the duty free shops, and finally find your gate. By this time, you are ready to board, about one hour after you enter the airport.<br>We will be essentially interested in air law that is why, the purpose of this master's thesis is to consider the legal aspect of facilitation in ci

Abstract:
Media and activist groups have recently exposed the problem of negative interactions between law enforcement officers and civilians. Many of these civilians have a mental illness. Various researchers attribute these negative interactions to insufficient officer knowledge of mental illness due to a lack of training, education, and personal experiences. Very little research addresses how insufficient knowledge of mental illness may influence interactions. The purpose of this phenomenological study was to explore and analyze self reported law enforcement knowledge using Malcolm Knowles' conceptua
