BIOETHIK IN JAPAN UND ASIEN
Autor uspoređuje bioetiku u Japanu s bioetikom u ostalim azijskim
zemljama i u širim globalnim razmjerima. Bioetiku možemo
promatrati na dva načina: kao deskriptivnu - način na koji
ljudi gledaju na život te njihove moralne interakcije i odgovornosti
prema životu - ili kao preskriptivnu - određivanje onog što je
dobro, a što loše, koji su principi najvažniji, ili pak da ljudi imaju
određena prava, pa prema tome drugi imaju obveze prema njima.
Riječ "bioetika" znači proučavanje etičkih pitanja koja proizlaze iz
ljudskog odnosa prema životu i autor je naprosto naziva "ljubav
prema životu". Kao podloga za raspravu o bioetičkim pitanjima
poslužila je Međunarodna bioetička anketa provedena 1993. u
Australiji, Hong Kongu, Indiji, Izraelu, Japanu, Novom Zelandu,
Filipinima, Rusiji, Singapuru iTajlandu. Neke od tema o kojima se
raspravlja jesu: stavovi prema znanosti, briga za okoliš, genetski
inženjering, privatnost, genetske bolesti iAIDS, prenataini genetski
testovi probira, gensko liječenje, tehnologija asistirane reprodukcije,
medicinska profesija i medicinska etika, eutanazija, moždana
smrt i transplantacija organa, obrazovanje. Glavno pitanje
kojim se bavi bioetika u Aziji danas je budućnost bioetike i univerzalnost.
U studenom 1995.1 osnovat će se Istočno azijsko bioetičko
Udruženje (East Asian Association of Bioethics), a dvomjesečnik
Eubios Journal of Asian and International Bioethics
uključen je u Internet (http://www.biol.tsukuba.ac.jp/ ymacerl
EJAIB.html).This paper focuses on bioethics in Japan with comparisons to
Asia, and global comparisons. There are two ways to think of
the term bioethics, one is as descriptive bioethics - the way people
view life and their moral interactions and responsibilities with
life. The other is prescriptive bioethics - to say what is good or
bad, what principles are most important, or that people have
rights and therefore others have duties to them. The world
"bioethics" means the study of ethical issues arising from human
involvement with life, and I have called it simply the "love of life".
The International Bioethics Survey performed in 1993 in Australia,
Hong Kong, India, Israel, Japan, New Zealand, the Philippines,
Russia, Singapore and Thailand is used as a background to discuss
the issues of bioethics. The topics discussed include attitudes
to science; environmental concerns; genetic engineering;
privacy, genetic diseases and AIDS; prenatal genetic screening;
gene therapy; assisted reproductive technology; the medical profession
and medical ethics; euthanasia; brain death and organ
transplants; and education. The future of bioethics and universality
are mayor issues in bioethics in Asia today. The founding of the
East Asian Association of Bioethics will be in November, 1995,
and the bimonthly Eubios Journal of Asian and International Bioethics
is on-line on the Internet (http://www.biol.tSukuba.ac.jp/

mit der Bioethik der Obrigen asiatischen Staaten und dem
globalen Kontext bioethischer Bestrebungen. Die Bioethik kann
auf zweierlei Art und Weise betrachtet werden: als deskriptive
Disziplin - d.h. Lebenseinstellung, moralische Interaktion zwischen
den Menschen und Verantwortung dem Leben gegenober
- oder als praskriptive Einstellung - als die Bestimmung dessen,
was gut und was schlecht ist, welche Grundsatze ausschlaggebend
sind, oder aber als Hinweis auf die Legitimitat bestimrnter
Rechte des Menschen und der daraus folgenden Verpflichtungen,
die andere ihm gegenOber haben. Der Ausdruck "Bioethik"
bedeutet: Untersuchung ethischer Fragen, die aus der Einstellung
des Menschen zum Leben hervorgehen, und vom Verfasser
wird dies einfach auch als "Liebe zum Leben" bezeichnet. Als
Grundlage zur Diskussion Ober bioethische Belange diente eine
internationale bioethische Umfrage, die 1993 in Australien, Hong
Kong, Indien, Israel, Japan, Neuseeiand, auf den Philippinen, in
RuBIand, Singapur und Thailand durchgefOhrt wurde. Einige der
wichtigsten Themen, die hier besprochen werden, lauten: Verhaltnis
zur Wissenschaft, Umweltschutz, Genmanipulationen,
Privatsphare, genetische Erkrankungen und AIDS, pranatale
genetische Selektierungstests, Genbehandlung, Technologie im
Dienste assistierter Reproduktion, Arztberuf und medizinische
Ethik, Euthanasie, Gehirntod, Organtransplantation und Edukation.
Die Hauptfrage, mit der sich die Bioethik in Asien heute beschaftigt,
ist ihre Zukunft und Universalitat. Im November 1995
wurde der Ostasiatische Verband fOr Bioethik (East Asian
Association of Bioethics) ins Leben gerufen, und die Zweimonatszeitschrift
Eubios Journal of Asian and Interntional Bioethics ist
Teil des Internet-Angebots (http://www.biol.tsukuba.ac.jpl-macerIEJAIB.

Ética universal e biodireito multicultural
Diversity is part of what we call being human. We need an integrated cross cultural approach to ethics. We should never expect all people to balance the same values in the same way all the time. Nevertheless, there are numerous benefits if the same values, or principles, can be used by ali people and societies. All human beings are found as members of sorne society but ali accommodate sorne individualism within a social niche. All societies have ethical norms and sorne system of ethics. Any international ethical approach to assisting people and systems to making bioethical decisions must consider the biological, social and spiritual origins of humanity. In this fashion, the focus of this article is to address the fundamental question of whether or not a common ethical system could be accepted and applied universally as well as what consequences this could have for biolaw. La diversidad es parte de lo que llamamos ser humano. Necesitamos un enfoque intercultural integrado de la ética. Nunca deberíamos esperar que todas las personas equilibren los mismos valores de la misma manera todo el tiempo. No obstante, existen numerosos beneficios si todos los pueblos y sociedades pueden utilizar los mismos valores o principios. Todos los seres humanos se encuentran como miembros de alguna sociedad, pero todos acomodan algún individualismo dentro de un nicho social. Todas las sociedades tienen normas éticas y algún sistema de ética. Cualquier enfoque ético internacional para ayudar a las personas y los sistemas a tomar decisiones bioéticas debe considerar los orígenes biológicos, sociales y espirituales de la humanidad. De esta manera, el enfoque de este artículo es abordar la cuestión fundamental de si un sistema ético común podría aceptarse y aplicarse universalmente, así como las consecuencias que esto podría tener para el bioderecho.La diversité fait partie de ce que nous appelons l'etre humain. Nous avons besoin d'une approche interculturelle intégrée de lethique. Nous ne devrions jamais attendre de tous les gens qu'ils équilibrent les mémes valeurs de la meme maniere tout le temps. Cependant, ily a de nombreux avantages a ce que tous les peuples et toutes les sociétés puissent utiliser les rnemes valeurs ou príncipes. Tous les étres humains se retrouvent comme membres d'une société, mais tous s'accommodent d'un certain individualisme au sein d'une niche sociale. Toutes les sociétés ont des normes éthiques et un certain systeme dethique. Toute approche éthique internationale visant a aider les personnes et les systemes a prendre des décisions bioéthiques doit tenir compte des origines biologiques, sociales et spirituelles de l'humanité.Ainsi, le présent artide se concentre sur la question fondamentale de savoir si un systeme éthique commun pourrait etre universellement accepté et appliqué, ainsi que sur les irnplications que cela pourrait avoir pour le biodroit.A diversidade faz parte do que chamamos ser humano. Precisamos de urna abordagem intercultural integrada da ética. Nunca devemos esperar que todas as pessoas equilibrem sempre os mesmos valores da mesma forma. Contudo, há muitos beneficios se todos os povos e sociedades puderem utilizar os mesmos valores ou princípios. Todos os seres humanos se encontram como membros de alguma sociedade, mas todos acomodam algum individualismo dentro de um nicho social. Todas as sociedades tém padroes éticos e algum sistema de ética.

This collection of papers were originally presented during conferences on ethics in science and technology that UNESCO’s Regional Unit for Social and Human Sciences (RUSHSAP) has been convening since 2005. Since intercultural communication and information-sharing are essential components of these deliberations, the books also provide theme-related discourse from the conferences
