Setting Primary Health and Social Care Priorities Using a Deliberative Democratic Participatory Approach
INTRODUCTION: Publicly funded regional primary health care investments are usually informed by analysis of locally collected data, surveys, focus groups and consultations.

U.S. Drug and Alcohol Policy, Looking Back and Moving Forward
Since the early twentieth century, both moral perspectives and changing perceptions of the disease model of alcoholism and addiction have significantly influenced the formulation of U.S. domestic policy on drugs and alcohol.

Health and Well-Being
Health is discussed as both a generalized and a very relative concept, defined to include not only freedom from physical disease and pain, but also social well-being. The im portance of environmental factors is stressed. Measuring health status in the past has been largely dependent on the negative aspects of health—death rate and morbidity. Al though still important, they no longer yield enough information on which to establish goals and determi…
