    Area of Science:

    • Bioethics
    • Philosophy of Science

    Background:

    • To advocate for a broader, more inclusive approach to bioethics.
    • To challenge the dominance of the analytical tradition in ethical discourse.

    Main Methods:

    • Critique of the analytical tradition in bioethics.
    • Exploration of interdisciplinary influences from literature, history, and social sciences.

    Main Results:

    • The analytical tradition's limitations in capturing the complexity of ethical issues.
    • The potential for richer ethical insights through broader disciplinary engagement.

    Conclusions:

    • Bioethics should integrate diverse perspectives from the humanities and social sciences.
    • A more holistic approach is needed to understand individual and social human life in ethics.
