自治、福利和艾滋病治疗。

许多与艾滋病有关的问题是两极分化的。在社会层面上，公民权利或自由被视为与普遍效用相冲突，而类似的区别往往被认为存在于医生工作的一对一的个人层面上。在本文中，后一种形式的区别被认为是错误的。通过将自主权视为福利的一部分，医生可以更直接地思考家长式作风、保密和同意等问题。其中一些问题是根据修订后的福利概念，以简化案例研究的形式讨论的。
Many AIDS-related issues are polarised. At the social level, civil rights or liberties are seen as being in conflict with general utility, and an analogous distinction is often assumed to exist at the one-to-one, individual level at which doctors work. In this paper the latter form of the distinction is argued to be false. By seeing autonomy as part of welfare, doctors can think more directly about such issues as paternalism, confidentiality, and consent. A number of these issues are discussed in the light of the revised conception of welfare, in the form of simplified case studies.
