    La reapropiación del principio de benevolencia en el discurso médico sobre el espectro intersexual

    Full text link
    This paper examines the use of bioethical principles in the official medical discourse for the surgical management of these cases. Educational materials on video from the American Association of Medical Schools on ‘differences in sexual development’ were subjected to semi-quantitative analysis. Digital documents available on the web were revised to catalog Latin American countries that allow the change of name and registered sex without the prerequisite of genital surgeries. The reconceptualization of the principle of benevolence from medical humanism is used as a rhetorical strategy to privilege the biotechnical gaze of expert knowledge and to ensure the clinical management of the intersex spectrum. In contrast, the public policy of ten Latin American countries gives priority to principles of bioethics and human rights by not requiring genital surgeries. The principle of benevolence in the official medical discourse of the United States is a failed act by omitting genital surgeries from the discussion and by continuing to privilege expert knowledge. The intersex spectrum allows us to study the intersectionality between sex/gender, bioethics and human rights and reaffirms the need to include these issues in academic training from our latitudes

    Perspectiva ética y agenda pendiente en la migración y transmigración en México

    The risk that the promise offered by the destination means for the migrant and the transmigrant seems to be the result of the sum of multiple poverty and the context in the place of origin, to achieve the dream of migration is signified. This has a broad ethical question in the complexity of the migratory phenomenon, which omits human rights and exposes the lack of network and social solidarity. Additionally, the pending agenda with a gender perspective of settlers, migrants, and transmigrants, shows the highly vulnerable condition violated by a tradition that means migration, where there is a highrisk of those who leave, and forces the assumption of a new character of the care of the land, the family, and the culture by the intimate couple, but without the tenure, nor the recognition, nor the training for it. The need for strategic public policies in the face of a Latin American reality is raised with the need for a legal structure that is not a dead letter in the treatment of migrants and transmigrants as an obligation of the State and expression of social human sensitivity. This document reviews with an ethical perspective the need to argue the human condition and the migratory processes that originate as a human right for the search for minimum conditions for the construction of the person; the precarious conditions that the migrant lives both in their mobility and in their transmigratory process, and therefore the risk of perceiving them without human value from their citizen condition. Likewise, it is intended to make visible from a gender perspective, the risks that are generated in the migratory process, of the one who leaves, of the one who stays, of the violence that is experienced, and of the roles lived by women in the care of children, the elderly and property in the place of origin, or the risk of sexual abuse in the immigration process

    Desafíos de la bioética a partir de las categorías : cuerpo y dolor total en el final de la vida

    Full text link
    In recent decades, the body has occupied an important role in theoretical analysis, it is worth saying that the body is what constitutes us and what we are. In this sense, the text seeks to resume the understanding and importance of the body from the discourse, and the bioethical contribution, in a topic as relevant as the end of life; to achieve the above, this work will address three moments: First, the category of body will be clarified from various supports to arrive at the theoretical conclusion of the importance of the same. Subsequently, in a second item, the body and total pain categories will be worked through questions pertaining to the surveys of 11 patients of the Advent- Health Hospital of Florida, to achieve a measurement of vulnerability

    Global Survey of Business Ethics 2022-2024 : teaching, research and training. Vol. 3, Europe

    Full text link
    The Global Survey of Business Ethics 2022-2024 (GSBE) incorporates the full 36 country or regional reports that were collated over three years of investigation by 94 reporters. The sheer volume of content required the publication of three volumes. This third volume is collated as follows: Volume 3: Short introduction to the Global Survey of Business Ethics 2022-2024 and the European country reports. Compared to Africa and Asia (presented in volume 1 and 2), Europe is a relatively small and homogenous continent. But their submitted reports may surprise by their huge variety. They are written in English, the “lingua franca” of business while many of them were carried out in the respective languages, e.g., in Spanish, Italian, German, Estonian and Hungarian. The differences range from business ethics activities being closely guided by international standards such as the PRME (“Principles for Responsible Management Education”) in Ireland and recent Directives of the European Union in Denmark to priorities of struggling with “non-financial disclosure and accounting” in Italy and to “post-war reconstruction” and “moral leadership of the business elite” in Ukraine. It is obvious that the socio-political and cultural context of the country (i.e., the systemic or macro-conditions) shape to a large extent the decision-making and acting of business enterprises and educational organizations as well as individuals at the meso- and micro-levels, respectively. The European reports are presented in this volume and include Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, France, Germany-Austria-Switzerland, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, and Ukraine

    Principios bioéticos por asumir en el proceso formativo de estudiantes durante y posterior a enfermar por covid-19

    The SARS-COV-2 virus came to transform the life of society in more than two hundred countries on five continents in the world. This virus demonstrated various nodal points in the vulnerability of societies and brought with it problems that humanity itself is still learning to solve as it tries to recover from socioeconomic and health damages. This work shows an ethnographic study that was carried out in order to understand the problems faced by students of upper secondary and higher education in Mexico, who have fallen ill with covid-19 but have had to continue their activities in their educational institutions, to analyze the errors made in the uncertainty of the institutional action in the face of the pandemic in a country with a medium and low income, and with it, under access to the emerging vaccination program; and the need to continue disciplinary training activities to maintain educational quality. It isexpected to understand how to support students in these situations, from an ethical perspective of principles

    Bioética y diálogo de saberes : búsqueda de alternativas para los nuevos desafíos de la humanidad

    Full text link
    The chapters of this book are selected contributions from the 7th Bioethics International Congress, organised by the Universidad de San Buenaventura, Colombia, the 20, 21 and 22 October 2021.Contains abstracts in English.La Universidad de San Buenaventura Colombia, desde la Vicerrectoría para la Evangelización de las Culturas, su Centro Interdisciplinario de Estudios Humanísticos, CIDEH, y el grupo de investigación GIDPAD (Grupo Interdisciplinario para el Desarrollo del Pensamiento y la Acción Dialógica - Medellín), con su línea de pensamiento ecologizante y formación bioética, en coherencia con la fundamentación filosófica franciscana que permite poner en diálogo el carácter humanista y científico, decide compilar algunos trabajos relacionados con la bioética, atendiendo a la necesidad de generar escenarios dialógicos y convocar esfuerzos sinérgicos en pro de esta disciplina, como un elemento formativo para las nuevas generaciones en el ámbito de la educación. Este trabajo consta de seis partes y veinticinco capítulos en total, con autores de varios países de Latinoamérica: México, Argentina, Puerto Rico, Ecuador, Chile y Colombia, que aportan con sus escritos al cumplimiento del gran anhelo de Van Rensselaer Potter como uno de los referentes de la Bioética, cuando expresa la importancia de la generación del diálogo entre las disciplinas humanísticas con las ciencias fácticas, el conocimiento socio humanístico con el científico, el diálogo de decires con el de haceres. (UNIMINUTO)En las últimas décadas, el cuerpo ha ocupado un papel importante en el análisis teórico, vale la pena decir que el cuerpo es lo que nos constituye y lo que somos. En este sentido el texto busca retomar la comprensión y la importancia del cuerpo desde el discurso, y el aporte bioético, en un tema tan relevante como lo es el final de la vida. Para lograr lo anterior, inicialmente, se clarificará la categoría de cuerpo desde diversos sustentos para llegar a la conclusión teórica de su importancia. En segundo lugar, se trabajarán las categorías cuerpo y dolor total a través de preguntas pertenecientes a las encuestas realizadas a once pacientes del Hospital AdventHealth de Florida; esto, con el fin de obtener una medición de la vulnerabilidad que enfrentan estas personas. Finalmente, se analizarán los desafíos bioéticos que dejan las connotaciones de dolor, sufrimiento y vulnerabilidad, para lograr, desde allí, una praxis de la comprensión del cuerpo y el dolor en el final de la vida, además, de los retos que puede dejarnos este análisis

    La bioética desde la relación bíos y zoé frente al ecosistema global

    Full text link
    Bioethics expresses an awareness that-gives-what-to-think about a science whose capacity for objectification involves life as a response to the restlessness, uneasiness and concern that has been generated in different fields of scientific knowledge, not only in that of life sciences, on the future of life on Earth as a consequence of the transformation of today’s man “into a powerful geological force” that threatens the survival of the global ecosystem and that brings us back to the Greek tension ancient between bíos and zoé, which presents us with coextensive forms of life in the natural being of man (human and animal) that support the vision of Potter who proposed a “mixture between basic biology, science social and humanities”. Consequently, by putting bíos and zoé in relation to the global ecosystem, the novel confluence of biology and ethics appears before our eyes; That is to say, it will no longer be the parallel currents of biology/ethics, but the study of two intertwined series, the series of the scientific and the series of the symbolic, which means contacting, intertwining, forming a web, weaving, a braiding and a warping the two series

    Sociedad, educación y organizaciones desde la perspectiva bioética

    Full text link
    There is a belief in society that bioethics is beyond their reach and understanding because it is “something” related to medicine. The foregoing as a consequence of the close bioethics-medicine relationship since the origin of the former. Its creators had defined bioethics as a bridge to the future, a bridge between science and ethics, in such a way that the progress of one would not lose sight of the other, because if this happened, the consequences would be catastrophic. Techno-scientific advances generate opportunities and risks, which become social challenges in the face of human vulnerability and the organizations that manage techno-scientific projects. Some entities have placed greater emphasis on their particular interests, using unethical means in order to achieve their purposes of obtaining profits at all costs. Thus, the organizations have been questioned by society in general, without obtaining greater responses from them in the face of constant questioning related to their unsupportive behavior. Through proper education and understandingof bioethics by society, transformations leading to the consolidation of fairer communities will be achieved. Bioethics, education, organizations and society are the pillars that will allow achieving and maintaining the balance between technoscience and ethics
