Abstract

Autonomy is a core concept for medical decision-making in the United States. Yet as issues of social justice have been increasingly appreciated by American bioethicists, so has the difficulty of reconciling autonomy with unjust contexts. Bioethicists have turned to the feminist concept of relational autonomy to address these issues, but there is disagreement over its implementation. This paper aims to clarify the relationship between unjust circumstances and respect for autonomy by analyzing the utility of relational autonomy for medical decision-making in nonideal social contexts.

非理想医疗决策中的关系自治。

自主权是美国医疗决策的核心概念。然而，随着社会公正问题越来越受到美国生物伦理学家的重视，自治与不公正环境之间的协调也变得越来越困难。生物伦理学家已经转向女性主义的关系自治概念来解决这些问题，但对其实施存在分歧。本文旨在通过分析非理想社会环境下关系自治对医疗决策的效用，阐明不公正环境与尊重自主权之间的关系。
