Abstract

Our health, our income and our social networks at older ages are the consequence of what has happened to us over the course of our lives. The situation at age 50+ reflects our own decisions as well as many environmental factors, especially interventions by the welfare state such as education policies, access to health care and many types of social protection from poverty relief to housing subsidies and maternity support. This book explores the richness of 28,000 life histories in thirteen European countries – ranging from Scandinavia to Central and Eastern Europe to the Mediterranean – collected as part of the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE). Combining these data with a comprehensive account of European welfare state interventions provides a unique opportunity to answer the important public policy questions of our time – how the welfare state affects people’s incomes, housing, families, retirement, volunteering and health. The overarching theme of the welfare state creates a book of genuinely interdisciplinary analyses, a valuable resource for economists, gerontologists, historians, political scientists, public health analysts, and sociologists alike.

Abstract

Toujours plus complexe, toujours plus touffue, la réglementation des marchés publics cause le désespoir des praticiens – avocats, magistrats, fonctionnaires, juristes d’entreprise, étudiants ... – par ses modifications incessantes et une jurisprudence en forte croissance spécialement au niveau européen.Alors que de nouvelles directives européennes ont été publiées le 31 mars 2004 (et nécessitent une nouvelle adaptation de notre réglementation nationale), il était temps de brosser un tableau de la situation actuelle, de relever les solutions dégagées par le législateur et la jurisprudence mais aussi les nombreux points d’ombre qui subsistent.C’est le défi relevé par les auteurs. Ceux-ci sont parvenus à établir cette synthèse grâce à une connaissance «de terrain» de la matière acquise depuis de nombreuses années mais aussi grâce à une documentation qui leur permet de porter un regard tant sur les marchés publics européens que belges dans leurs multiples aspects.Qu’il s’agisse de la notion même de marché public, des centrales d’achat, de la dématérialisation programmée des marchés publics, des critères de sélection des candidats, des critères d’attribution des marchés, des nouveaux mécanismes de dialogue compétitif, accord-cadre ou encore PPP, ainsi que du contentieux de la commande publique et des autres sujets d’actualité, le lecteur trouvera dans cet ouvrage à chaque fois l’analyse des derniers développementsde la matière.

Abstract

This book is about the lives of Europeans aged 50 and over. It paints a picture of theirhealth, their families and social networks, their economic situation and their happiness. Itshows the large variation of life circumstances in each country, and it reveals striking differencesas well as similarities across the European countries.Two observations form the background for this book. First, Europe has an enormouswealth in its diversity of cultures, histories and policy approaches. More than any othercontinent, Europe is blessed with large cultural, historical and political differences evenwithin small distances. Comparing countries and regions to simply observe how thesedifferences have shaped the behaviour of the European citizens is a fascinating task; understandingthe mechanisms through which culture, history and public policy affects all of us,is even more fascinating.Second, Europe is ageing. “Old Europe”, as an outside observer has put it, is the continentalready with the highest proportion of elderly citizens, and the population ageingprocess will continue for the better part of this century. Understanding how the ageingprocess will affect us all, and how it affects the people in the European countries differently,because their culture, their historically grown societal structures and their public policyapproaches differ, is an important task for researchers in economics, social sciences andpublic health in order to turn the challenges of population ageing in Europe into chancesfor Europe.Understanding ageing and how it affects individuals in the diverse cultural settings ofEurope is the main task of SHARE, the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement inEurope. SHARE has already collected data on the individual life circumstances of about22,000 persons aged 50 and over in 11 European countries, ranging from Scandinavia tothe Mediterranean and data collection is still going on. SHARE has made great efforts todeliver truly comparable data, so we can reliably study how differences in cultures, livingconditions and policy approaches shape the quality of life of Europeans just before andafter retirement. This book presents the first results from SHARE. It is a first step to betterunderstand where we are, where we are heading to, and how we can influence the qualityof life as we age – both as individuals and as societies.Ageing affects all of us, both as individuals and as societies. Section 1 introduces whatwe can learn from SHARE about population ageing, while Section 2 shows the interactionamong health, economic and sociological issues in individual ageing. Section 3 describesthe development process of the SHARE data and presents the current data, its richnessand its limitations. Section 4 provides a summary of our first results. This introductionends with an outlook where SHARE wants to go, and a big Thank You to all our sponsorsand helpers.

Abstract

Une réflexion originale sur l'impact du droit européen dans le secteur des soins de santé.Une problématique au coeur des préoccupations des Etats-membresGarantir à tous des soins de santé de qualité constitue, dans nos États européens, un objectif majeur. A l’heure actuelle, les systèmes de santé sont organisés au niveau national. Cette organisation traditionnelle ne doit-elle pas être repensée eu égard à l’intégration européenne ?Une étude pluridisciplinaire, exhaustive et pratiqueL’objet du présent ouvrage est de mener une réflexion originale sur l’impact du droit européen dans le secteur des soins de santé. Il aborde les différentes facettes de cette question, à savoir la circulation des patients, des prestataires de soins, des produits de santé ou encore la gestion de l’assurance maladie au regard des règles européennes du marché intérieur, de la sécurité sociale et de la concurrence. Puisant dans les disciplines du droit, de la science politique et de l’économie, il clarifie les enjeux que soulève « l’européanisation » des soins de santé.Une référence pour les juristes et les professionnels de la santéL’ouvrage intéressera les scientifiques et les praticiens du droit – avocats, magistrats, fonctionnaires – de même que les entreprises - organismes d'assurances et mutuelles, institutions de soins de santé - souhaitant comprendre et de tirer profit de l’ouverture des frontières en Europe dans le secteur des soins de santé.

Abstract

There is a fundamental contradiction at the core of health policy in the EU that makes it difficult to draw a line between EU and Member State responsibilities. This raises a number of difficult questions for policy makers and practitioners as they struggle to interpret both 'hard' and 'soft' laws at EU and Member State level and to reconcile tensions between economic and social imperatives in health care. The book addresses these complex questions by combining analysis of the underlying issues with carefully chosen case studies that illustrate how broader principles are played out in practice. Each chapter addresses a topical area in which there is considerable debate and potential uncertainty. The book thus offers a comprehensive discussion of a number of current and emerging governance issues in EU health policy, including regulatory, legal, 'new governance' and policy-making dynamics, and the application of the legal framework in these areas.

Abstract

Het Consortium Vergrijzing in Vlaanderen en Europa (CoViVE) voert beleidsgericht onderzoek naar de socio-economische impact van de vergrijzing in Vlaanderen en Europa. Centraal staan de verdeling van de economische last van de veroudering tussen en binnen generaties, de kwaliteit, betaalbaarheiden toegankelijkheid van de zorg en de participatie van ouderen in het arbeidsbestel en het maatschappelijke leven. Dit boek beschrijft de socio-economische en demografische levensomstandigheden van Vlaamse ouderen aan de hand van de recentste gegevens, en bekijkt hoe de Vlaamse oudere zich verhoudt tot leeftijdsgenoten in andere delen van België en Europa. Centraal staat de vraag wat deze positiebepaling betekent voor het Vlaamse beleid. Deze uitgave laat de Vlaamse wetenschappelijke experten reflecteren over de socio-economische, demografische en beleidsmatige uitdagingen voor de toekomstige vergrijzingsproblematiek in Vlaanderen en België
