The Foundation of Soviet Bioethics and Arguments on Neo-Eugenics: ―ソヴィエト哲学者イワン・フロロフの言動を中心に―

Abstract

This article is devoted to examining the formation of Soviet bioethics since the 1970s by focusing on the activities and viewpoints of Ivan Frolov, who played a prominent role in laying the ground-work for this interdisciplinary study, and who would later become an adviser to the General Secretary of the CPSU in the Gorbachev era. In doing so, this paper aims to demonstrate the differences between the Soviet bioethics and that of the Western school of thought, as well as to identify the shortcomings of Frolov’s attempt to establish the field in the USSR. look molecular genetic discussion with the title Genetics, its Philosophical, There an a general ge-neticist, a demographer, as well as an ethicist and philosophers the social-ethical aspects of science, Soviet, later— Russian recombinant the in criti-cised all-roundly;
