  1. Creating Capabilities: The Human Development Approach.Martha C. Nussbaum - 2011 - Harvard University Press.
    In this critique, Martha Nussbaum argues that our dominant theories of development have given us policies that ignore our most basic human needs for dignity and self-respect.

  • (1 other version)Happiness and meaning: Two aspects of the good life.Susan Wolf - 1997 - Social Philosophy and Policy 14 (1):207-225.
    The topic of self-interest raises large and intractable philosophical questions–most obviously, the question “In what does self-interest consist?” The concept, as opposed to the content of self-interest, however, seems clear enough. Self-interest is interest in one's own good. To act self-interestedly is to act on the motive of advancing one's own good. Whether what one does actually is in one's self-interest depends on whether it actually does advance, or at least, minimize the decline of, one's own good. Though it may (...)

  • Genetic Dilemmas and the Child's Right to an Open Future.Dena S. Davis - 1997 - Hastings Center Report 27 (2):7-15.
    Although deeply committed to the model of nondirective counseling, most genetic counselors enter the profession with certain assumptions about health and disability—for example, that it is preferable to be a hearing person than a deaf person. Thus, most genetic counselors are deeply troubled when parents with certain disabilities ask for assistance in having a child who shares their disability. This ethical challenge benefits little from viewing it as a conflict between beneficence and autonomy. The challenge is better recast as a (...)

  • (5 other versions)Phenomenology of Perception.Maurice Merleau-Ponty - 1962 - New York: Routledge. Edited by Donald A. Landes.
    Challenging and rewarding in equal measure, _Phenomenology of Perception_ is Merleau-Ponty's most famous work. Impressive in both scope and imagination, it uses the example of perception to return the body to the forefront of philosophy for the first time since Plato. Drawing on case studies such as brain-damaged patients from the First World War, Merleau-Ponty brilliantly shows how the body plays a crucial role not only in perception but in speech, sexuality and our relation to others.

  • Hat ein Kind eine Pflicht, Blutstammzellen für ein krankes Geschwisterkind zu spenden?Prof Dr Christina Schües & Prof Dr Christoph Rehmann-Sutter - 2013 - Ethik in der Medizin 25 (2):89-102.
    Die allogene Transplantation von Blutstammzellen aus dem Körper von Kindern, die der Spende nicht selbst zustimmen können, in den Körper eines kranken Geschwisterkindes wirft schwierige ethische Fragen auf. Wie kann ein risikobehafteter, fremdnütziger medizinischer Eingriff ethisch gerechtfertigt werden? In dieser Arbeit werden Argumente kritisch untersucht, nach denen das Spenderkind eine Pflicht habe, bei der Transplantation mitzumachen. Die Idee der Pflicht ist nachvollziehbar aus der Perspektive der Eltern, die zwar in einem Fürsorgekonflikt sind (ein Kind zu Gunsten der Rettung des anderen (...)

  • Philosophie des Geborenseins.Christina Schües - 2016 - München/Freiburg: Verlag Karl Alber.
    Ziel dieser Studie ist die Konzeption eines Menschenbildes, einer Denk- und Handlungsdimension, die nicht nur den universalen Menschen in den Mittelpunkt ruckt, sondern auch die Pluralitat, Herkunftigkeit, Leiblichkeit, Geschlechtlichkeit und Endlichkeit der Menschen als grundlegend anerkennt. Ein Denken von der Geburt her bestatigt den generativen Zusammenhang der Menschen untereinander und bestimmt deren Selbstverstandnis und ihr Verhaltnis zu sich selbst, zum Anderen, zur Welt und Geschichte. Somit hat die philosophische Ergrundung und Neufassung des Geborenseins Konsequenzen fur Politik und Ethik. Vor dem (...)
