ETHICS AND POLITICS, BIOETHICS AND BIOPOLITICS

Hrvoje Jurić ; Filozofski fakultet, Zagreb

Sažetak

The author assumes that the societal aspects of biomedicine and environmental science – that are here the framework topic – cannot be adequately perceived nor understood out of the context of traditional and recent ethical, political and ethico political debates. Therefore, the meaning and status of ethics and politics in Aristotelian practical and philosophical concept, and later on what it is that brings this actualisation of this concept, as within the attempt to rehabilitate Aristotelian practical philosophy in the 20th c, so within some modern debates on environmental crisis, have been presented at the beginning of the article. Some new concepts that have brought out some actual and adequate answers to the meaning and role of ethics and politics in regard to the issues the humanity and the planet Earth are faced with, have been pointed out here. Finally, the concepts of bioethics and biopolitics are discussed, especially with regard to the extent to which they are connected with traditional notions of ethics and politics, and also having in mind their potential in view of the presentation of societal aspects of biomedicine and environmental science.
