En betydande del av den vård som ges har liten eller ingen nytta för patienten. Detta kallas för lågvärdevård. Sådan vård riskerar att skada patienter, sjukvårdssystemet och samhället i stort.Detta är den första svenska läroboken i ämnet. Boken beskriver vad lågvärdevård är, med konkreta exempel från många olika medicinska specialiteter. En inblick i vårdens utveckling och lågvärdevårdens drivkrafter försöker besvara varför sådan vård bedrivs. Boken avslutas med att beskriva hur lågvärdevård kan motverkas genom strukturella initiativ och vad enskild vårdpersonal kan göra för att inte utsätta patienter för vård utan värde.Boken riktar sig till läkarstudenter, studenter på andra hälso- och sjukvårdsutbildningar, personal och chefer i vården, sjukvårdspolitiker - och alla som vill bidra till en mer hållbar sjukvård.»Jag förstår att du har fullt upp med att lära dig vad du ska göra, så behöver du verkligen läsa den här boken om vad du inte ska göra? Mitt definitiva svar är JA!«Lars Sandman, professor i hälso- och sjukvårdsetik, ur bokens förord

Hur kan vi förstå uppkomsten och konsekvenserna av dagens konflikter? Vad kan göras för att förhindra att de bryter ut? Och hur kan pågående konflikter lösas på ett sätt som skapar varaktig fred? I denna breda grundbok presenteras centrala frågeställningar och analytiska perspektiv på krig, terrorism, konflikthantering och konfliktlösning, samt fredsbyggande och utveckling. Boken innehåller också illustrativa fallanalyser – allt ifrån första världskriget, kriget i Afghanistan, konflikthantering i Afrika, svensk säkerhetspolitik och försoningsprocesser i Bosnien-Hercegovina till fredsbyggande insatser i Palestina.I denna andra upplaga har samtliga kapitel uppdaterats och tre nyskrivna kapitel, som behandlar terrorism, religionens betydelse för konfliktlösning och fred samt fred och säkerhet ur ett jämställdhetsperspektiv, har tillkommit.Freds- och konfliktstudier har en flervetenskaplig karaktär, vilket i boken återspeglas i de olika kapitelbidragen och författarnas akademiska bakgrund. Boken vänder sig till de som är intresserade av frågor om krig och fred samt studenter vid universitet och högskolor som möter ämnet freds- och konfliktstudier för första gången.

This volume explores the implementation of key gender policies in international peace and security, following the adoption of UN Security Council resolution 1325 in October 2000, the first thematic resolution on Women, Peace and Security.How should we understand women’s participation in peace processes and in peace operations? And what forms of gendered security dynamics are present in armed conflict and international interventions? These questions represent central themes of protection and participation that the international community has to address in order to implement UNSCR 1325. Thus far, the implementation has often employed varying approaches related to gender mainstreaming, a third theme of the resolution. Yet, there is a dearth of systematic data which until recently has restricted the ability of researchers to evaluate the progress in implementation and impact of UNSCR 1325. By engaging with both empirics and critical theory, the authors of this edited volume make important contributions to the gender, peace and security agenda. They identify some of the problems of implementing UNSC 1325 and offer a sobering assessment of progress of implementation and insights into how to advance our understanding through systematic research. Many of the chapters are focused on operational aspects of UNSCR 1325, but all also engage with the theoretical underpinnings of UNSCR 1325 to bring forth central debates on more fundamental challenges to the development of knowledge in the fields of gender, peace and security. This book will be of much interest to students of gender studies, peace and conflict studies, security studies and IR in general.

This volume deals with women's participation in international peacekeeping operations and what those operations might consider to be the role and circumstances of women, including those of the host society. Essays include: a theoretical perspective on women and war, highlighting the difference between post-modernist and universalist approaches to women's roles in peacemaking and conflict resolution, the role of women in military operations, the implications of the high levels of sexual violence in peacekeeping operations and the UN's gender policy for peacekeeping operations.

A solid introduction to mathematical modeling for a range of chemical engineering applications, covering model formulation, simplification and validation. It explains how to describe a physical/chemical reality in mathematical language and how to select the type and degree of sophistication for a model. Model reduction and approximation methods are presented, including dimensional analysis, time constant analysis and asymptotic methods. An overview of solution methods for typical classes of models is given. As final steps in model building, parameter estimation and model validation and assessment are discussed. The reader is given hands-on experience of formulating new models, reducing the models and validating the models. The authors assume the knowledge of basic chemical engineering, in particular transport phenomena, as well as basic mathematics, statistics and programming. The accompanying problems, tutorials, and projects include model formulation at different levels, analysis, parameter estimation and numerical solution.

One of the most significant challenges facing the international community today is how to secure stability and rebuild societies emerging from civil wars. International peace-building missions have been deployed in a range of countries emerging from civil war. The empirical record of international efforts to advance peace has been mixed. While some post-war countries have made significant strides towards peace and democracy, other countries have experienced a return to war. In yet other cases the outcome has been a partial implementation of peace where new conflicts have been generated in the process. In Building Peace, Creating Conflict? a group of experts discuss the conflictual dimensions of peace-building. The authors specialize in various aspects and cover several themes such as frozen conflicts and unending peace processes; the efficiency of peacekeeping operations in promoting democracy, and individual and collective dimensions of justice and reconciliation.
