Improving bioethics by clarifying and elaborating its methodology: a response to Gomez-Virseda and colleagues

  • Bjørn Hofmann

摘要

In a recent article Gomez-Virseda and coauthors criticize my previous work on methodology in bioethics and argue that bioethics is a discipline. While I think that Gomez-Virseda and co-authors misconstrue my argument, state the obvious, and fail to address pressing questions to their argument, I am most thankful for the inspiration and opportunity to elaborate on why methodology matters for consolidating bioethics’ professional standing, to improving its quality, ascertaining its academic and educational importance, and to advancing its trustworthiness and social impact.
