This study brings together two important literatures together in the one volume. One concerns the role of quality assessments in social policy, especially health policy. The second concerns ethical and social issues raised by prenatal testing for disability. Hitherto, these two literatures have had little contact with each other: few scholars have written about both, or have compared the two domains in a systematic way, while people with disabilities and disability scholars are underrepresented in recent discussion on health policy and quality of assessment. This book turns the perspectives of disability scholars on issues that have largely been the province of health methodology, policy and philosophy, while angling philosophical policy analysis on problems that have largely been the province of disability scholarship. This volume will be sought after by bioethicists, philosophers, and specialists in disability studies and healthcare economics.

Quatrième de couverture : "Depuis 2001, l’Organisation mondiale de la santé (OMS) promeut l’utilisation de la classification internationale du fonctionnement, du handicap et de la santé (CIF) pour la collecte de données dans le domaine du handicap et de la dépendance.Ce manuel d’utilisation de la CIF présente des outils pratiques et standardisés permettant aux cliniciens et praticiens de décrire et d’évaluer de façon simple et rapide le fonctionnement des patients. Il explique la notion de « batteries de codes CIF », qui sont autant de sélections de catégories de la CIF s’appliquant à différents types de problèmes de santé.S’adressant à tous les professionnels exerçant une pratique clinique (médecine physique et de réadaptation, kinésithérapeutes, infirmier[ères], psychologues…), ainsi qu’aux étudiants et formateurs dans le champ de la santé, cet ouvrage propose de nombreuses études de cas et des exemples pratiques. En complément de l’ouvrage, un site Internet (www.icf-core-sets.org), disponible en français, permet la création de formulaires de recueil de données."

Being an ‘active citizen’ involves exercising social rights and duties, enjoying choice and autonomy, and participating in political decision-making processes which are of importance for one’s life. Amid the new challenges facing contemporary welfare states, debate over just how ‘active’ citizens can and ought to be has redoubled. Presenting research from the first major comparative and cross-national study of active citizenship and disability in Europe, this book analyses the consequences of ongoing changes in Europe – what opportunities do persons with disabilities have to exercise Active Citizenship? The Changing Disability Policy System: Active Citizenship and Disability in Europe Volume 1 approaches the conditions for Active Citizenship from a macro perspective in order to capture the impact of the overall disability policy system. This system takes diverse and changing forms in the nine European countries under study. Central to the analysis are issues of coherence and coordination between three subsystems of the disability policy system, and between levels of governance. This book identifies the implications and policy lessons of the findings for future disability policy in Europe and beyond. It will appeal to policymakers and policy officials, as well as to researchers and students of disability studies, comparative social policy, international disability law and qualitative research methods.
