生物伦理学，现在通常代表生物医学伦理学，是医学人类学参与的一个领域。虽然许多人类学家和其他社会科学家与生物伦理学家和医生合作，但本文从文化生物伦理学和解释医学人类学的角度将生物伦理学作为文化研究的主题。运用文化人类学和宗教人类学的经典人类学研究成果和解释性透镜，揭示了一个没有单一起源或统一方法论的领域。本文提出了适当的字面意义目前的概念共性的术语生物伦理学：该术语实际上是指多个不同的企业具有不同的起源，因此，理由。
Bioethics, the term now usually standing in for Biomedical Ethics, is a field of medical anthropological engagement. While many anthropologists and other social scientists work with bioethicists and physicians, this paper instead takes Bioethics as a topic of cultural research from the perspective of Cultural Bioethics and Interpretive Medical Anthropology. Application of useful findings of vintage anthropological research in cultural anthropology and the anthropology of religion and an interpretive lens reveal a field without a single origin or unified methodology. The paper suggests the appropriateness of a literal meaning of current conceptual commonality of the term Bioethics: that the term does in fact refer to a plurality of distinct enterprises with distinct origins and, hence, justifications.
