Sažetak
The first part of this article deals with the primary features of bioethics in Canada and the United States of America with some few references to those aspects of Integrative Bioethics (primarily historical perspectives and pluriperspectivism) that seem to be mentioned in journals and texts. The overall assessment is that Integrative Bioethics as such does not exist in any noticeable fashion in Canada (or the United States). Throughout this paper methodological concerns arise repeatedly. The second half of the paper suggests some fundamental methodological starting points and outlines some possibilities for projects in/of Integrative Bioethics that could be initiated with existing resources, institutional and communal.
