在这篇论文中，我们提出了我们认为是一个相对有争议的论点，声称“生物伦理学”需要在实践方式上进行根本的改变。我们认为，这种变化要求哲学生物伦理学家在公共论坛上应用他们的分析时采用反思性实践，公开承认生物伦理学是一种嵌入的社会文化实践，由哲学家个人不断变化的直觉塑造，不能被视为一种超然的智力努力。这就是说，我们认为，为了管理生物伦理学的个人、社会和文化嵌入性，哲学生物伦理学家应该公开承认他们的实践是如何构建的，并且应该在他们的写作中明确地处理偏见和利益冲突的问题，就像经验主义科学家被要求做的那样。
In this paper we set forth what we believe to be a relatively controversial argument, claiming that 'bioethics' needs to undergo a fundamental change in the way it is practised. This change, we argue, requires philosophical bioethicists to adopt reflexive practices when applying their analyses in public forums, acknowledging openly that bioethics is an embedded socio-cultural practice, shaped by the ever-changing intuitions of individual philosophers, which cannot be viewed as a detached intellectual endeavour. This said, we argue that in order to manage the personal, social and cultural embeddedness of bioethics, philosophical bioethicists should openly acknowledge how their practices are constructed and should, in their writing, explicitly deal with issues of bias and conflict of interest, just as empirical scientists are required to do.
