摘要

在本文中,我探讨了医学干预的本质,如神经调节对人类复杂的爱情体验的影响。爱情建立在两种基本性质上,即:生理和心理。由于这种区别,科学家和生物伦理学家一直在探索这种复杂的人类经历可以被生物学篡改的可能方式,以产生一些所谓的更高层次的目标,比如幸福和人类繁荣。厄普、桑德伯格和萨乌列斯库走在这一探索的前沿,他们十多年来的研究工作都集中在爱的医学化可能带来的好处上。我承认对这一立场提出的各种批评。然而,这些批评大多是针对使用药物影响人类浪漫关系过程可能产生的副作用和社会文化危害,最后,批评赞同将爱情医学化,因为它的利大于弊。因此,我提出了两种反对“医疗辅助的爱”的论点,即本体论和社会伦理的论点。前者假设,除了将爱医学化可能产生的副作用之外,这种努力本身就存在一些错误,而且爱与医学工程的替代品之间存在一些本质上的不同。在后一种观点中,我认为药物干预浪漫爱情违背了医学的本质。总的来说,我相信尽管批评者们反对,但他们仍然能够支持将爱情医学化,因为他们只关注一个方向,即身体/文化的复杂性。

Love and romantic relationship in the domain of medicine.

In this paper, I explore the nature of medical interventions like neuromodulation on the complex human experience of love. Love is built upon two fundamental natures, viz: the biological and the psychosocial. As a result of this distinction, scientists, and bioethicists have been exploring the possible ways this complex human experience can be biologically tampered with to produce some supposed higher-order ends like well-being and human flourishing. At the forefront in this quest are Earp, Sandberg and Savulescu whose research works over ten years has focused on the good that could stem from the medicalization of love. I acknowledge the various criticisms that have been made against this stance. However, most of these criticisms have been directed towards the mere side effects and sociocultural disservices that could result from the process of using drugs to influence human romantic relationships and in the end, critiques endorse the medicalization of love on the basis that its benefits outweigh the disadvantages. Consequently, I advance two strands of arguments against "medically-assisted love," the ontological and the socio-ethical arguments. The former presupposes that beyond the possible side effects of medicalizing love there is something inherently mistaken about this effort and there is something intrinsically different about love that distinguishes it from its medically-engineered alternative. In the latter argument, I claim that drug interventions in romantic love contravene the very nature of medicine. Overall, I believe that critiques were still able to endorse medicalizing love despite their objections because they were only looking at one direction, the physical/cultural complications.

期刊介绍: Medicine, Health Care and Philosophy: A European Journal is the official journal of the European Society for Philosophy of Medicine and Health Care. It provides a forum for international exchange of research data, theories, reports and opinions in bioethics and philosophy of medicine. The journal promotes interdisciplinary studies, and stimulates philosophical analysis centered on a common object of reflection: health care, the human effort to deal with disease, illness, death as well as health, well-being and life. Particular attention is paid to developing contributions from all European countries, and to making accessible scientific work and reports on the practice of health care ethics, from all nations, cultures and language areas in Europe.
