Issue, pp. 5 - 6 (RECOMMENDED CITATION) EDITORIAL: ETHICAL ISSUES IN CLINICAL AND CULTURAL CONTEXT DANIELA-TATIANA AGHEORGHIESEI1, ANDRADA PÂRVU2 In the 21st Century, health care professionals all over the world are faced with situations that rise serious ethical challenges; some of them could be solved involving the knowledge and collaboration of legal professionals, psychologists, social services or clergy. Contemporary medicine is centred on patient’s autonomy and rights, as well as on health care models provided by multidisciplinary teams, adapted to the patient’s needs and specificities. All these issues are challenging the Romanian health care deciders to draft better policies and medical staff to improve their services. This supplement of Studia UBB. Philosophia aims to gather a broad spectrum of empirical and theoretical research focused on the role of moral values and on ethical issues in the realm of health care and public health policies in Romania. The papers are focused on complex, multi-dimensional and interdisciplinary models of care, some of them related to cultural patterns. Also, the management issues of care system and ethics programs implemented in hospital institutions are approached. Important challenges for medical staff in nowadays Romania are represented by ethical issues in clinical and cultural context, like communicating the severe diagnosis, the patient’s access to medical information, respecting the patient’s autonomy, patient’s access to medical services, and substance misuse and addiction. In order to offer high standard health care to chronic patients, the medical personnel must address the patient’s psychological needs and enhance its cultural competence for a better understanding of the ethnic minorities. 1 Center for Ethics and Health Policies, University of Medicine and Pharmacy “Gr T.

Popa” Iaşi; Asistant Professor, Hematology Department, “Iuliu Haţieganu” University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Cluj-Napoca, [email protected] EDITORIAL In this context, end-of-life care and making decision is one of the most important bioethical problems. Dying patient are a vulnerable population and their rights must be protected. In Romania, palliative care services are insufficient and legislation regarding end-of–life issues is deficient. Another problem rises at the very threshold of clinical and cultural context: the healthist ideology, a socio-cultural phenomenon which has consequences like the presence of medicine in everyday life, self-medication, new types of health practitioners, or the growing social anxiety in connection with health, illness and medicine. Another important issue, both for practitioners in health and social services and for the political deciders, is substance abuse and addiction. The widespread biomedical model has positive and negative aspects. Medicalisation (pathologization) is not always the best solution for helping these people. The approach of the addictive behaviour must be therefore multidisciplinary, culture-adapted, and opened to alternative solutions. In the Romanian integrated service system for consumers of psychoactive substances, case management is considered a key procedure. However, reports shows that the degree of integration is low and case management is barely functional. In conclusion, in order to a better management of the substance abuse, there is a need to develop a social level kind of case management in order to increase the social responsiveness to the issues of substance abuse. For all that, the problem of addiction cannot be studied without making strong sense of reality of the Internet, which can be “enemy and ally” while solving the problem. Two relevant researches bring into focus the power of the internet in this way, the impact on young people. This force, if properly understood, could be avoided or used in a positive way. First at all, the impact of Internet use has been investigated by a qualitative research, aiming at analyzing the current experience as Internet users of 20 Romanian adolescents of 15-16 years old. The results could contribute to a better understanding of the development of the excessive Internet use or addictive behaviours of adolescents. Moreover, the role of virtual communities of students, as important tools in supporting the post-treatment of persons with substance addiction is the subject of an extended comparative research. We hope that the papers included in this issue will help extended medical care teams, which include not only physicians and nurses, but also psychologists, social workers, spiritual counsellors and so forth, to better understand their patient’s needs and rights and to provide high quality efficient services. 6 STUDIA UBB.

  • Hate Crime Report 031008
    HATE CRIMES IN THE OSCE REGION - INCIDENTS AND RESPONSES ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2007 Warsaw, October 2008 Foreword In 2007, violent manifestations of intolerance continued to take place across the OSCE region. Such acts, although targeting individuals, affected entire communities and instilled fear among victims and members of their communities. The destabilizing effect of hate crimes and the potential for such crimes and incidents to threaten the security of individuals and societal cohesion – by giving rise to wider-scale conflict and violence – was acknowledged in the decision on tolerance and non-discrimination adopted by the OSCE Ministerial Council in Madrid in November 2007.1 The development of this report is based on the task the Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR) received “to serve as a collection point for information and statistics on hate crimes and relevant legislation provided by participating States and to make this information publicly available through … its report on Challenges and Responses to Hate-Motivated Incidents in the OSCE Region”.2 A comprehensive consultation process with governments and civil society takes place during the drafting of the report. In February 2008, ODIHR issued a first call to the nominated national points of contact on combating hate crime, to civil society, and to OSCE institutions and field operations to submit information for this report. The requested information included updates on legislative developments, data on hate crimes and incidents, as well as practical initiatives for combating hate crime. I am pleased to note that the national points of contact provided ODIHR with information and updates on a more systematic basis.
