Northern Ireland has one of the lowest breastfeeding rates in the world. Low breastfeeding rates are associated with considerable morbidity, some mortality and increased health service costs for women and children. In Northern Ireland, several factors make the initiation and maintenance of breastfeeding particularly difficult; these include cultural attitudes, commercial promotion of artificial milks and obstacles for the working mother. The aim of the Strategy is to promote and support breastfeeding. Medium-term objectives: - province-wide co-ordination of breastfeeding promotional activities - commissioning of breastfeeding support within the health service - detailed and uniform collection of infant feeding statistics - research into effective means of breastfeeding promotion - improved training in lactation management for health professionals - supporting breast milk feeding for special needs infants - raising of public awareness of the importance of breastfeeding - cessation of artificial milk promotion within the health service åÊ Long-term objectives: - adopt the recommendations following review of the milk token scheme in England - bringing the marketing of infant foods and feeding products into line with the International Code of Marketing of Breast Milk Substitutes åÊ Progress will be monitored by the Northern Ireland Breastfeeding Strategy Group. åÊ åÊ

Aquest treball vol donar una resposta a preguntes com les següents: Per què la política no ha tingut (mai?) ni té gaire bona fama?; realment és incompatible la recerca, la consecució i l'exercici del poder amb els dictats de l'ètica?; què han dit alguns dels pensadors més rellevants sobre la presumptament difícil relació entre l'ètica i la política?

In recent years, the fight against money laundering has emerged as a key issue of financial regulation. The Wolfsberg Group is an important multistakeholder agreement establishing corporate responsibility (CR) principles against money laundering in a domain where international coordination remains otherwise difficult. The fact that 10 out of the 25 top private banking institutions joined this initiative opens up an interesting puzzle concerning the conditions for the participation of key industry players in the Wolfsberg Group. The article presents a fuzzy-set analysis of seven hypotheses based on firm-level organizational factors, the macro-institutional context, and the regulatory framework. Results from the analysis of these 25 financial institutions show that public ownership of the bank and the existence of a code of conduct are necessary conditions for participation in the Wolfsberg Group, whereas factors related to the type of financial institution, combined with the existence of a black list, are sufficient for explaining participation.

Aquest article estudia el documental històric amb la intenció de confrontar alguna de les controvèrsies que han sorgit sobre la idea de la reconstrucció històrica en el camp del cinema i de la televisió. El primer punt plantejat consisteix en l’actualització de la idea proposada per Marc Ferro de que cada pel•lícula és un document de mentalitats, partint de dues idees bàsiques: primer, que el cinema, a més de ser un document, té una història com a producte artístic i segon, que la documentació del passat ha de dur-se a terme sense caure en el que Tzevan Todorov diu els abusos de la memòria. El segon punt té a veure amb el problema de com la història és modificada donada la percepció que tenim de ella des d’un punt particular al present. Finalment, entra en el tema de la ètica amb la intenció de fer front al problema de les limitacions de l’acte de mostrar en un moment històric particular en que aquesta mostra ha estat transformada en una forma de banalització

Des de l’entrada en vigor del nou Codi Penal de 1995, la Direcció General de Mesures Penals Alternatives i Justícia Juvenil ha realitzat un nombre reduït de mediacions. Al novembre de 1998, es va iniciar un programa pilot en alguns jutjats penals i d’instrucció de Catalunya, basat en l’anàlisi de les possibilitats d’aplicació de la reparació a la víctima. També s’estudiaven les primeres experiències de mediació i les tècniques de mediació adquirides pels professionals de la Direcció General en els àmbits de la mediació penal juvenil i la mediació familiar. En aquest estudi, s’avaluen els objectius respecte de l’infractor (responsabilització de les accions i reparació), la víctima (participació en la resolució, sentir-se reparada...), la justícia (promoure la responsabilització, la reparació i la pau social, garantir la resolució...) i la comunitat (apropar la justícia als ciutadans). Els resultats mostren la rellevància que està adquirint la justícia restauradora i la necessitat de facilitar eines perquè es pugui desenvolupar, tot i que de moment el nombre de casos derivats ha estat baix. S’ha demostrat la necessitat de flexibilitat en el tractament dels casos a causa de la diversitat de conflictes. També s’ha vist la necessitat de promoure la formació dels professionals que hi intervenen i d’impulsar reformes legislatives.

La investigación analiza si, con el horizonte del Libro Sexto del Código Civil de Cataluña relativo a las obligaciones y los contratos, el legislador catalán tiene que mantener el modelo tradicional de la rescisión por lesión ultradimidium, o bien tiene que integrar esta institución en el marco de la protección de la parte débil del contrato, en la línea de las modernas propuestas de derecho europeo.

The Journal of Medicine and Philosophy has been impoverished by the loss of Dr. Francesc Abel Fabre, S.J. (1933–2011), one of the founders of bioethics and a long-time member of the Editorial Advisory Board. 2011 brought the death of Dr. Francesc Abel Fabre, S.J., at the age of 78. He was the pioneer of European bioethics. Dr. Abel learned the discipline at Georgetown University, working side by side with the founder and first director of the Kennedy Institute of Ethics, André Hellegers, as bioethics itself was coming into existence. He went from this experience to establish the Institute Borja of Bioethics in Catalonia in 1976, the first center of bioethics in Spain and in Europe. Through his scholarship and teaching, he established an influential dialogue in bioethics, as well as ethics committees in hospitals and in research centers. In 1986 he joined in founding the European Association of Centres of Medical Ethics, an organization in which he was involved and participated for the last 25 years. He contributed crucially to bioethics across the world, especially through the International Study Group on Bioethics (1980–1994). He was widely recognized as an outstanding bioethics expert in Latin America.

Tugan-Baranovsky's ideas on socialism are reconstructed with an emphasis on the relation between political economy and utopia. Utopia enters the stage after the critique of capitalism, in the definition of the realm of possibilities in the world of ideas. With the help of ethics, the notion of ideal socialism, unreachable by definition, is defined in the sphere of utopia. Thus, the task of political economy is first to show which of these possible worlds are reachable in the real world, and second to choose the one that conforms better to ideal socialism: this is socialism in practice through the economic plan. Thus, far from considering utopia and science as contradictory, Tugan-Baranovsky saw them as complementary, and his socialism is the result of the dialogue he instituted between them.
