RT Article T1 What Do You Think of Philosophical Bioethics? JF Cambridge quarterly of healthcare ethics VO 24 IS 2 SP 139 OP 148 A1 Häyry, Matti LA English PB Cambridge Univ. Press YR 2015 UL https://www.ixtheo.de/Record/1827987502 AB This article provides an overview of approaches to bioethics—practical and theoretical, philosophical and nonphilosophical. It is argued that those who yearn for pragmatism and real-life relevance would do well to concentrate on politics, legislation, social policy, and lobbying. Those, on the other hand, who seek knowledge about our moral thought might be interested in philosophical bioethics—in the explication of concepts, arguments, views, and normative statements.
