从某种意义上说，生命伦理学是建立在冲突之上的。堕胎、医生协助自杀、病人对自主权的要求都是主要的、有争议的问题。争议还在继续扩散。哪个论坛最适合这样的辩论？看看民主的政治理论可以帮助回答这个问题。在生物伦理学的辩论中，最有希望的理论是要求公民和官员证明任何集体行动的要求是合理的，给出的理由可以被那些受行动约束的人所接受。这个概念后来被称为协商民主。
In some sense, bioethics was built on conflicts. Abortion, physician-assisted suicide, patients' demand for autonomy all are staple and contentious issues. And the controversies continue to proliferate. What forum best serves such debates? A look at political theories of democracy can help answer that question. The most promising for bioethics debates are theories that ask citizens and officials to justify any demands for collective action by giving reasons that can be accepted by those who are bound by the action. This conception has come to be known as deliberative democracy.
