Principialismo bioético y biojurídico: ¿necesitan la bioética y el bioderecho europeos un marco diferente de principios?

Contenido principal del artículo

Tom L. Beauchamp

Resumen

Los cuatro principios de la ética biomédica se utilizan ampliamente en el mundo para la deliberación bioética. Por tanto, se entiende que estas guías teóricas son útiles para el análisis y resolución de controversias éticas particularmente complejas que surgen en el campo clínico y biomédico. Este artículo desarrolla un análisis de los principios universales básicos, la moral universal común y algunas características de cada principio. Luego, analiza algunos problemas planteados por los críticos del bioderecho europeo que han proporcionado marcos alternativos de principios que no son universales a la cultura. Finalmente, se muestra cómo los principios morales universales están conectados con los derechos humanos, cómo se especifican las reglas y los derechos para que sean detallados y prácticos para ciertas moralidades, y cómo estas ideas se relacionan con problemas de justificación en la bioética y en el bioderecho.
