Abstract:
A philosophical and legal analysis of consent in the patient-doctor relationship leads to operational limitations. Getting over these limits requires a transdiciplinary approach aimed at understanding the living world and modeling its evolution. This approach rests on recognition of different philosophical, legal, sociological, economical, and historical reality levels, permitting a new non-exclusive role of consent in medicine, i.e. the respect of human dignity.
