Catholic Theological Ethics, Past, Present, and Future
Theological ethicists confront key questions and issues from around the globe to provide a 'state of the art' volume in 21st-century moral theology.
Care and Respect in Bioethics
This book discusses the philosophical foundations of bioethics, with a particular focus on the tensions and potential dilemmas generated by the intuitionist meta-ethical commitments of the predominant normative theory, namely “the four principles approach.” This view is based on the prima facie norms of respect for autonomy (one ought to respect the autonomous choices of subjects of scientific research/patients), non-maleficence (one ought to refrain from inflicting harm), beneficence (one ought to do good and prevent, or remove, harm) and justice (one ought to treat people fairly). The tensions in applying these basic principles may lead to inaction in scientific experiments involving h...
A Prophet to the Peoples
The Global Theological Ethics book series focuses on works that feature authors from around the world, draw on resources from the traditions of Catholic theological ethics, and attend to concrete issues facing the world today. It advances the Journal of Moral Theology's mission of fostering scholarship deeply rooted in traditions of inquiry about the moral life, engaged with contemporary issues, and exploring the interface of Catholic moral theology, philosophy, economics, political philosophy, psychology, and more. This series is sponsored in conjunction with the Catholic Theological Ethics and the World Church. The CTEWC recognizes the need to dialogue from and beyond local cultures and to interconnect within a world church. Its global network of scholars, practitioners, and activists fosters cross-cultural, interdisciplinary conversations--via conferences, symposia, and colloquia, both in-person and virtually--about critical issues in theological ethics, shaped by shared visions of hope.
The Cry of the Poor
This book offers an interdisciplinary effort to address global health issues grounded on a human rights framework seen from the perspective of those who are more vulnerable to be sick and die prematurely: the poor. Combining his scholarship and service in impoverished communities, the author examines the connection between poverty and health inequalities from an ethical perspective that considers contributions from different disciplines and the voices of the poor.
Fritz Jahr and the Emergence of European Bioethics
The book presents the results of a long research into the life and work of the German theologian and teacher Fritz Jahr (1895–1953) from Halle an der Saale, who was the first to use the term "bioethics", as early as 1926. It is a revised history of bioethics with an overview of all 22 of Jahr’s known published papers. The analysis follows the diffusion after 1997 of the discovery of Fritz Jahr worldwide and particularly the contribution of Croatian bioethicists to it.
Bioethics Education in a Global Perspective
This book critically analyses experiences with bioethics education in various countries across the world and identifies common challenges and interests. It presents ethics teaching experiences in nine different countries and the basic question of the goals of bioethics education. It addresses bioethics education in resource-poor countries, as the conditions and facilities are widely different and set limits and provide challenges to bioethics educators. Further, the question of how bioethics education can be improved is explored by the contributors. Despite the volume of journal publications agreement on bioethics education is rather limited. There are only few examples of core curricula, demonstrating consensus on the contents, goals, methods and assessment of teaching programs. We need ask: How can agreement on the best modalities of bioethics education be promoted?.
1926-2016 Fritz Jahr's Bioethics
The ethics of valuing bios in all their forms and shapes has been an essential part of great and successful cultures from the millennia-old Vedic tradition of 'tattvamasi'-this is also you: this plant, this animal, this microbe, this ecosystem-to the simple hands-on call of Jesus's 'love your neighbor.' But as a term bioethics was coined 90 years ago by Fritz Jahr, an educator and pastor in Halle in his Bioethical Imperative 'Respect every Living Being as an end in itself and treat it, if possible, as such.' This book examines the development of Fritz Jahr's concept of bioethics over the last ninety years.

História da Bioética no Brasil
A bioética produzida no Brasil é bastante abrangente, no entanto a maioria dos trabalhos publicados trata dos conflitos morais que se referem aos aspectos bioéticos da saúde pública. Assim, identifica-se nestas publicações a prioridade do princípio da justiça, com uma clara vinculação entre ética e política, e vínculos como o Movimento Sanitarista. Essa bioética "feita no Brasil" assume para si algumas das reivindicações da saúde pública, como a universalização dos serviços de saúde e a alocação dos recursos em saúde, e incorpora outros aspectos relacionados à dimensão socioeconômica e à qualidade de vida. "De fato, embora a bioética no Brasil exista desde os a...
Direito médico e da saúde
Os médicos se tornam profissionais mais cônscios do compromisso com o exercício ético da profissão, atentos à humanização, ao cumprimento do dever de informar e de obter o consentimento. Do paciente, exige-se lisura e boa-fé, pois suas informações se tornam relevantes para o diagnóstico, prognóstico e aconselhamento, fato que muda os contornos da relação médico-paciente. Tendo em vista essas considerações, sinto-me honrada pelo convite das professoras Hildeliza Boechat, Alinne Arquette e Raquel Veggi para prefaciar Direito Médico e da Saúde, pela Editora Almedina, de necessária leitura na atual perspectiva do tema, com textos de renomados doutrinadores nacionais, internacionais e estudiosos, em um movimento preparatório para um novo tempo que é chegado, de um direito amplo, com muitas possibilidades expectativas do paciente rumo ao cumprimento de sua autodeterminação.
