FOR 1209: Institute for Advanced Study in Bioethics

研究股打算辩论生物伦理规范正当性的理论基础，一方面借鉴哲学元伦理学、规范伦理学、法律和政治哲学，另一方面对过去30年来发生的生物医学伦理学、生物医学法和生物政治学方面的关键公共争端进行批判性重新评估。该项目的目的是（重新）巩固这两个辩论分支，促进相互学习进程，以便以一种理论上可靠和规范上令人信服的方式来解决医学伦理和生物政治问题。为此，研究股打算探讨医学伦理和生物政治学规范的产生和正当性的过程，并对这些领域中最重要和最有影响力的规范正当性概念进行比较分析。无论是在元伦理学和应用推理的观点，它将特别检查的重要性和合理性的人类学，权利导向（义务论），结果主义和自然为基础的方法形成伦理，法律和政治规范。本研究项目旨在对这些理论线进行系统的合并，并希望实现其研究领域互动地图的合作发展。它的重点将放在七个交叉关联的子研究领域，这些子研究领域被认为是综合研究视角的不同方面，其中五个主要属于道德哲学，第六和第七将重点扩展到法律哲学和政治理论：(1)反映在现代生命伦理学中的结果主义辩论，(2)幸福和福祉作为道德规范的基础？(3)自然与代理之间的规范设定，(4)公共卫生的规范基础，(5)时间持续和时间限制的规范意义和功能，(6)法律伦理及其对道德的包容和排斥，(7)生命政治学领域中道德异议和道德冲突的政治调节的原则和程序。

The Research Unit intends to debate theoretical fundamentals for the justification of bioethical norms, drawing on philosophical metaethics, normative ethics, legal and political philosophy on the one hand, and a critical reassessment of crucial public disputes in biomedical ethics, biomedical law and biopolitics which have taken place during the last 30 years on the other. The project aims at (re-) consolidating these two branches of debate and at facilitating reciprocal learning processes, in order to achieve a theoretically reliable and normatively cogent way of addressing issues of medical ethics and biopolitics. In order to do so, the Research Unit intends to explore processes of emergence and justification of norms in medical ethics and biopolitics, and to provide a comparative analysis of the most important and most influential concepts of normative justification in these fields. Both in the perspectives of metaethics and applied reasoning, it will especially examine the importance and plausibility of anthropological, rights orientated (deontological), consequentialist and nature-based approaches for the formation of ethical, legal and political norms. The research project aims at a systematic merger of these lines of theory and hopes to achieve the cooperative development of an interactive map of its research field. Its focus will be on seven cross-linked sub-fields of study, which are conceived as different aspects of an integrative research perspective, five of which belong primarily to moral philosophy, the sixth and seventh extending the focus to legal philosophy and political theory: (1) the consequentialism debate reflected in modern bioethics, (2) happiness and well-being as foundations for moral norms?, (3) norm setting between nature and agency, (4) normative foundations of public health, (5) the normative meaning and function of time duration and time limits, (6) the ethics of law and its inclusion and exclusion of morals, (7) principles and procedures in the political regulation of moral dissents and moral conflicts in the field of biopolitics.
