| Zusammenfassung: | Human rights may be the most globalized political value of our times. The rights paradigm has been criticized, however, for being theoretically unsound, legalistic, individualistic and based on the assumption that there is a given and universal humanness.

The problems and the possibilities of a rights approach in addressing health ethics issues are explored in this article. |
