Abstract:
In a White House ceremony on May 16, 1997, President Clinton issued an apology on behalf of the nation for the Tuskegee Syphilis Study, a forty-year research project in which African-American men were deceived and denied treatment in order to document the natural course of syphilis. Reflection on this occasion can give us pause to take pride in the progress made toward more ethical research with humans. The President's apology is perhaps the most public of a number of recent events representing a renewed attention to ethics in research with human participants. Alongside it stand the efforts of treatment activists for people with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) and the revelations of the human radiation experiments. In 1995, President Clinton called for the creation of the National Bioethics Advisory Commission, which was charged with a host of projects aimed at investigating the organization and function of the federal system for overseeing human subjects research in the United States, and giving guidance on specific forms of research.

Abstract:
Abstract The past 5 years have seen incredible advances in approaching hearing loss as a major public health issue. National efforts include the 2015 President’ Council of Advisors on Science and Technology and the National Academies of Science, Engineering, & Medicine’s 2016 Commission on Hearing Health Care for Adults, which led to the 2017 OTC hearing aid legislation and the expected debut of OTC hearing aids in 2020-2021. The World Report on Hearing amplifies these efforts. This presentation will cover the role of the Report in the context of the rapidly evolving hearing care landscape in the US and how the Report’s call for affordable, accessible hearing care fit within current national efforts focused on older adults. Finally, the WHO recognized 2020-2030 as the Decade of Healthy Aging. We will discuss how the World Report on Hearing integrates with broader efforts to support healthy aging locally and globally.

Africa's issues are global issues—hiv/aids, human development, new models for economic growth, peace, and democracy. Worldwide consciousness of the HIV/AIDS pandemic has even forced its way into the pages of a United States president's State of the Union address. In practice, however, priorities are being set by another agenda, a war agenda.

Abstract:
In 2003, the George W. Bush administration passed the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), a US government initiative to address the human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) epidemic primarily in Africa. PEPFAR’s US$18 billion budget remains the largest commitment from any nation towards a single disease and has saved countless lives. Given the historical and current political resistance to foreign aid, PEPFAR’s drastic spike in spending on HIV/AIDS raises questions over how the policy process resulted in bipartisan support. Using two policy process theories, punctuated equilibrium theory (PET) and the Narrative Policy Framework (NPF), this analysis helps explain the framing of the global HIV/AIDS epidemic and the factors that resulted in the creation of PEPFAR. The analysis of the PEPFAR policy process reveals a ‘tipping point’ in the early 2000s, when political actors, the media and advocacy coalitions benefitted from issue framing, narrative change and measures of political attention to elevate the global HIV/AIDS crisis to the public agenda. The findings highlight an increase in presidential attention, the evolution of the HIV/AIDS narrative away from stigma and the formation of powerful coalitions. Looking back on the combination of policy process factors that led to PEPFAR’s bipartisan success might lead to insights for dismantling the grand public health challenges of the present and future. This study’s findings have implications for currently stigmatised public health crises, such as the opioid epidemic.

Abstract:
World War II stands as a defining moment for American higher education. During the crisis of international relations that existed by the late 1930s, American thinkers of various stripes felt compelled to mobilize the country's intellectual and educational resources in defense of democracy, thus creating “a great ideological revival of democracy that accompanied the war.” The war aims of the United States—as enunciated in the Atlantic Charter and popular portrayals of the “good war” in which the United States fought to free the world from the grips of evil dictatorships—gave tremendous legitimacy to these efforts, which built into a national discussion on the goals of higher education. Between 1943 and 1947, at least five major reports on general education or liberal education appeared, three of which explicitly treated the relation of such education to “democracy” or “free society.”

Abstract:
With the rapid development of sophisticated victim surveys, the fear of crime has emerged as a fundamental concept in theoretical and practical discourse. Since publication of the Report of the President's Commission The Challenge of Crime in a Free Society (1967), the fear of offenders has become a major public concern in the United States alongside the mounting problem of crime itself. The flourishing of national crime surveys in the United States and in Europe has in turn led to large data sets examining carefully not only the knowledge and experience of the victims regarding criminality but also the fear of offenders and its causes ( cf. Herbert and Darwood, 1992; p. 145). We shall offer first, a review of research on these issues in Europe and the United States, and then we shall report our research that has probed these issues in a focused manner.

Abstract:
Recommendations to change the structure of the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) have been offered in the Staff Report to the Committee on Armed Services, United States Senate (1985) and the Final Report by the President's Blue Ribbon Commission on Defense Management (1986). Both reports pay little attention to the human implications of structural change. This paper argues that incentives are an important mediator between people and structure. Also, the preferred management style of key leaders needs to fit the organization structure. The Blue Ribbon (Packard) Commission recommendations appear compatible with current incentives and values. However, the Staff Report has major implications requiring changes in job designs and management styles in OSD.

Abstract:
On June 29, 2002, President George W. Bush invoked the United States Constitution's Twenty-Fifth Amendment, ratified in 1967. By so doing, he helped focus attention on the amendment's two disability provisions, Sections 3 and 4. Section 3 provides for voluntary transfer of power from the president to the vice president and is wholly dependent on the president's wishes. Section 4 provides for involuntary transfers of power, possibly over the president's objection. This controversial provision allows a vice president, with the assent of a majority of the cabinet, to become acting president. Critics have long argued that the vice president and cabinet officers, since they all owe their positions to the president, may be excessively reluctant to act even when action clearly is warranted. Therefore, some of these critics have proposed that a presidential disability commission be established at the beginning of every administration either to act under Section 4 in place of the cabinet or to provide formal and regular medical assessments so as to press for action in the event of presidential inability. I argue that such proposals are unwise and that their implementation would be counterproductive and even dangerous, both to the presidency and to the nation.

Abstract:
Conservative Christians played a significant role in pioneering the United States’ groundbreaking anti-HIV funding initiative, the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). Consequently, PEPFAR is widely regarded as George W. Bush's crowning achievement. The same political forces that ushered in PEPFAR under President Bush were also the architects of strict ideological restraints around the otherwise straightforward public health goal of curbing the spread of HIV/AIDS. In recent years, some of these restrictions have been rolled back or struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court, and PEPFAR has continued to serve a crucial role in global health and security. PEPFAR's future success in achieving its health mandate (to create an AIDS-free generation) will be influenced by lessons from its past. This article illuminates how, in its first decade, PEPFAR was directed toward the fulfillment of socially conservative goals that ran counter to its official agenda. This was accomplished in large part through two controversial provisions: the “anti-prostitution pledge” (2003–2013) and the “conscience clause” (2003–present). Working in tandem, these policies sought to secure funding for organizations that favored abstinence and fidelity rather than a multisectoral approach to AIDS prevention.

Abstract:
Tese de doutoramento em Relações Internacionais (Política Internacional e Resolução de Conflitos), apresentada à Faculdade de Economia da Universidade de Coimbra, sob a orientação de Paula Duarte Lopes.
In the last thirty years, the discipline of International Relations has witnessed a shift of analytical scope from the conventional world of states towards populationand social forces-related concerns. According to major scholarship, this occurs as a result of interrelated processes of economic globalisation, United States hegemony and emergence of the human security paradigm among Western policy circles. However, this assumption has entailed problems to the research of human agency in the actual practice of international affairs, since Western hegemony is arguably entrenched in the international system to the point of “hijacking” sovereign states, as suggested by Oliver Richmond, particularly in the developing world. Focusing its analysis on states, this dissertation sets out to argue that, rather than essentialised in the hegemonic structure, postcolonial states, notably in Africa, hold agency. When interacting with the leading international powers, and even if highly constrained by external policies and actions, they act with autonomy by identifying their own policy problems, defining strategies and seeking political goals. States’ agency is influenced by three independent variables: the broader realm of foreign policy relations maintained with international actors (public and private), namely leading states; the encompassing arena of domestic policies of the state at stake; and the actual practices of the state, particularly with its local constituents. The employed theoretical framework builds on Kenneth Waltz’s concepts of state as unit with agency in an international system that, nevertheless, is asymmetric. Moreover, the state is taken as a social relation, as suggested by Justin Rosenberg, in which internal and external spheres of state action are interconnected historically and sociologically.The case study consists of the process of implementation of the United States President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) in Botswana, Ethiopia and South Africa. Since 2003, PEPFAR has been a major tool of United States foreign policy, especially in Eastern and Southern Africa, serving security, economic and humanitarian purposes. It is a very large public-private partnership that includes United States government agencies and United States-based nongovernmental organisations, governmental and nongovernmental entities from the countries under intervention, as well as international multilateral organisations. Through PEPFAR, the United States of America exerts significant power, at various levels (individual, community and national), in the countries that accept it, despite principles of ‘shared responsibility’ and country ownership. More broadly, PEPFAR displays the problems that arguably feature global health governance, namely as far as utter asymmetric relations between donor and recipient states are concerned, in which the latter are rendered the role of facilitator or ‘rogue’ with regard to the former’s policies. Accordingly, the three states have acted as facilitators, with the exception of South Africa under President Thabo Mbeki. This dissertation’s argument is illustrated by the analysis of agency held by the three states in light of PEPFAR’s implementation and overall relations with the United States of America. The Botswana state behaves towards the survival of the national population, since close to one quarter of the adult population lives with HIV/AIDS in a context of shrinking developmental prospects. In the case of Ethiopia, self-help is also the main concern, yet centralised in the current political regime, in which human development, including improvement of health care, is considered fundamental in that effort. Finally, in the case of South Africa, the transmission of values domestically and internationally on the dignity of Africans has driven the way in which the governments have addressed the HIV/AIDS issue

Abstract:
This chapter describes the messy and convoluted routes by which money and programs move through the global AIDS system. It takes the huge and frenetic organization of the global AIDS enterprise, and a commitment of significant time and money, to create the encounters between altruists and brokers. The United States is clearly the predominant funder, providing considerably more than the Global Fund, to which many countries contribute. Taken together, bilateral donors—governments that give aid directly to a recipient country—provide about three-quarters of total funding. The President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), launched by President George W. Bush in 2003, provided for prevention, treatment with antiretroviral drugs, and mitigation of the effects of AIDS.

Abstract:
In global health in general and the field of HIV/AIDS in particular, market failures have occurred because those most affected by diseases are often the least able to pay for treatment and prevention. Public private partnerships (PPPs), such as those developed through the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria and the United States President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, have been created to address this problem. One limitation of PPPs is their broad definition and thus, the inability to measure and compare outcomes across partnership types. Nevertheless, appropriately planned, well-measured and mutually beneficial PPPs have shown important results in both the betterment of health sector delivery and the fight against single diseases, such as HIV/AIDS globally.

Abstract:
This chapter describes the principles of grand strategy as applied to global health and public health. It analyzes President George W. Bush's program, called the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (known as PEPFAR). Developed largely in secret and placed outside the traditional USAID bureaucracy, the PEPFAR program pole vaulted the United States into a leadership role in global health. The chapter then highlights how the use of grand strategic principles resulted in a highly successful, if still limited, global health intervention. The Bush Administration articulated explicit goals, or ends, and connected those to the larger ecology of national interests related to demonstrating American morality, and protecting the United States from the threat of pandemic HIV/AIDS. However, PEPFAR as a strategy was incomplete. It failed to address critical root causes of the spread of HIV/AIDS—the social and economic conditions in which such pathogens emerge and spread.

Abstract:
With a joint commission by the Houston Grand Opera, the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, and Teatro alla Scala, Leonard Bernstein undertook a serious new endeavor he had long wished for: the composition of a serious opera. By collaborating with librettist Stephen Wadsworth, Bernstein sought to create an “American opera” that took on real-life issues of the contemporary United States and expressed them in a distinctly American language. He centered the opera A Quiet Place on the issues of gender, sexuality, and family, which drove American politics during this period. The rising New Right turned “family values” into an ideology, the battle over which was further fueled by the AIDS epidemic. In the highly charged political environment of Houston, where the opera premiered, Bernstein challenged the prevailing social mores and eloquently advocated for AIDS research and support.
