Thirty years ago, Brazil’s health system was patchy and elitist, serving mainly the rich or unionized white-collar workers and neglecting the poorest—those living without access even to clean water, sewage, or housing. Today, the country’s Sistema Ùnico de Saúde (SUS) is one of the largest free universal health systems in the world. Conceived of as the country emerged from a brutal 20-year dictatorship and ushered into being by the same political movement that delivered Brazil back its civil democracy, 79% of Brazil’s population now rely solely on the SUS for health services. In this chapter, Mark Britnell takes a closer look at the Brazilian SUS, and PSF, the family health programme, and argues that both of these need to be protected and championed during these difficult times.

History has shown that primitive societies, with their well-developed value and norm systems, were self-governing. Needs of the people led to the development of mechanisms for survival. As primitive societies became more complex, a need arose for knowledge of the nature and structure of the communities in which they lived. Moral laws and rules, which governed primitive communities, were organized around the family and tribal environment. Even in the 21st century, forms of human behavior management center on tribal authority systems in different parts of the world. Crime is a social construction that has been widely theorized by historians, sociologists, anthropologists, and, of course, criminologists. Researchers have long tried to answer the questions as to why crime exists, how it is defined, how it can be controlled, and what makes it more prevalent in certain communities than in others. This special issue addresses many of these questions and reflects on contemporary research in the criminological field. The authors are at the forefront of the research on crime and shed new light on our societies’ ability to identify, reduce, or cope with criminality.

We cannot educate our children in the spirit of cosmopolitism, but instruct them to love their homeland instead. We have to put the big ideology in their little heads.Danilo Ž. Marković, Serbian Minister of Education in a speech to school managers of the Banat district, Daily Borba, 19 March 1993The words people use reflect their view of the world. In totalitarian societies the primary goal of a regime's language is to influence public opinion. A closer inspection of the most exploited phrases in Serbian public discourse in the period of the late 1980s until 2000 reveals a strong presence of propagandistic language. Thus, it can be argued that the consequences of Slobodan Milošević's politics are visible not only in the devastation of the people and the country but also in the sphere of Serbian public discourse. It is not only that his politics influenced the language. Rather, it is precisely because of the rich and diversified propaganda language of the regime that Slobodan Milošević's was able to maintain his firm grip on power in Serbia for 13 years.

The French Revolution

‘Jacobinism’ as perceived and experienced outside France varied between local contexts, the rich diversity of responses to the French Revolution reflecting the ideas, symbols and rhetoric emanating from France, but also pre-existing political and ideological trends, earlier attempts at reform, the specific structures of society and the scale of resistance to change. There were commonalities that included similarities in ideology, rhetoric, symbols and practices, but international Jacobinism was never a coherent ideology or political movement. ‘Jacobins’ outside France were, moreover, usually minorities and everywhere they felt the full force of reactions in defence of tradition and the conservative order. The varieties of ‘Jacobinism’ outside France nonetheless provided an important response to the widespread debates about the nature of freedom and political identity, the shape of which was being fervently disputed around the world.

Indian pharmaceutical industry (IPI) has traversed through many phases and it is in emerging phase now (2019). IPI is looking for innovation, creativity, newness in patient connect to perform different activities to achieve their stated goals. According to a recent World Health Organization report, approximately 50% of the people with chronic illness do not take their medication as prescribed [1]. Medication NonAdherence is a huge problem across the world. Pharmaceutical companies across the world manufacture medicines with set of standard operating procedures, guidelines, quality execution systems, inspection and verification from quality control and quality assurance activities. The very intention of producing medicines is to sell them to the patients who are in need. The last thing Pharmaceutical companies expects from Health Care Professional (HCP) is to write the prescription and patient carrying it to Pharmacy to buy the medicine. The medicines for chronic illness are expensive in general. Despite having the prescriptions for medicines, there are plethora of reasons for Patient not to buy them. One of the most remarkable reason is – ‘the medicine costs are exorbitant’. If the medicines are not taken in case of the chronic illness, the patient’s quality of life degrades over a period of time, eventually resulting to fatality. This is a known concern to Pharmaceutical companies and new methods are invented to address the need for supporting the Patient at difficult times. This paper made an attempt to introduce predictive analytics based financial assistance model for chronic care patients in India.

<p><em>This paper is based on a two decade observation on the dilemma of order and justice, leading to an attempt to analyze the social-economic factors underlying the historical roots of injustice. On its course it attempted to take lessons from historically proven axioms provided by certain heavy weight thinkers. While trying to make the best out of those axioms, the analysis could not ignore the hard facts of the daily life of the billions of people suffering from unending injustice in most parts of the world, in the rich and let alone in the poor parts of it. Neither could it escape from criticizing the ubiquitous mess in the justice system, almost universally. Although the overall problem of injustice does not seem to provide much hope for a better life of the people at large, the conclusion of this paper tried to distant away from a pessimistic stance and instead proposed an agenda for those who may concern to be carried out. This paper contains forethoughts of a book in the making regarding basically the same problem.  </em></p><p><em> </em></p><p align="right"><strong><em>Keywords</em></strong><em>:</em></p><em>history, authority, rationality, law, order, equality, justice</em>

Ramón Y Cajal

Santiago Ramon y Cajal, foreign member of the Society, died at his home, Madrid, on October 18, 1934, in his 83rd year. Strength of intellect and character had won him, in face of adverse circumstances, high and international position in the world of science. He had become in his own country a very symbol to the people of cultural revival of the nation. He had passed his early childhood in the mountain village of Petilla, where he was native, on the southern Pyreneean slope. His father practised surgery there among the peasants, himself of peasant stock, a doctor’s boy who had later acquired a barber-surgeon licence. Compact of energy and ambition, his father had by dint of grim economies moved later to Zaragoza, the University town. Little Santiago at school showed precocity. When not yet seven he was scribe for the family during an absence of his father in Madrid. But as he grew older the boy proved headstrong, with likes and dislikes intense and passionate. Thus, his love of watching birds on an occasion kept the countryside scouring for him in vain all night, with morning to discover him half up a precipice beside a martin’s nest where he had waited daybreak unable to get farther up or down. His other passion was to sketch : a sheet of paper made his fingers tingle to draw something—anything ; the mule kicking, the hen sitting, the castle on the height, the toper at the inn. Some of this draughtsmanship is extant and published. His father disapproved it ; he feared it might divert his son from medicine. So it was that the boy was packed off to Jaca, to the College of the Aesculapian Fathers. There Latin was a corner-stone of the instruction. Young Santiago, like young Helmholtz, could not learn by simple memorization ; the Latin teaching given required that. The college discipline was severe. Punishment came and grew relentless—the rod, incarceration, and prison-fare. The lad’s reaction became uncompromising rebellion. So was it that he was discharged, thin and sullen, silent about Jaca save for a rhapsody on the beauty of its valley.

A assistência pré-natal é fundamental para o preparo da maternidade. Não deve ser encarada como simples assistência médica e sim, como trabalho de prevenção de intercorrências clínico-obstétricas e assistência emocional. Assim objetivou-se neste estudo identificar as ações realizadas durante a assistência pré-natal pelos enfermeiros do Programa Saúde da Família (PSF), em Campina Grande - Paraíba. A amostra foi constituída por 24 enfermeiros que trabalham no PSF, o estudo foi do tipo transversal, descritivo, com abordagem quantitativa. Os dados foram coletados através de um formulário estruturado constituído por questões abertas e fechadas. Observou-se que 25% dos enfermeiros apresentavam especialização em obstetrícia, 79,16 % indicaram o primeiro trimestre como o período ideal para o inicio da assistência prénatal. 35,7% dos entrevistados atendem mensalmente de 20-30 gestantes e 87,5% acreditam ser necessário mais de 6 consultas para um bom acompanhamento da gestante Exames como grupo sanguíneo, fator Rh, hemograma, sorologia para sífilis foram os exames mais lembrados e solicitados pela totalidade dos entrevistados. Todos os enfermeiros verificavam a medida da altura uterina durante o exame clínico, e 70,83 % indicaram a necessidade de uma ultrasonografia a cada trimestre para um bom acompanhamento do pré-natal. Diante do exposto percebeu-se que a capacidade técnica do profissional condiz com as recomendações do Ministério da Saúde, entretanto muitas variáveis que implicam no sucesso da assistência pré-natal fogem da responsabilidade do profissional para encontrar explicações em outros paradigmas, como educação reflexiva, por exemplo, e o investimento em políticas sociais e de saúde.Pre-natal in the Family Health Program (PSF): with the word, the nursesAbstractThe pre-natal check-up is fundamental to the motherhood preparation. It should not be faced as a simple doctor’s assistance but as a prevention work of intercurrences obstetricclinical and emotional assistance.

The sample consisted of 24 nurses that worked in the FHP, the study was of a transversal kind, descriptive, with a quantitative approach. The data were collected through a structured formularies constituted by open and closed questions.
