Bioethics and human rights. A conjunction of two terms,
which seems certain of the apprehension of a relation between
two entities with definite conceptual contours. On the one hand,
bioethics as a very recent discipline, and thus supposed to be
the heiress of philosophical experience in its ultimate ripening.
And on the other hand, the notion of human rights, which seems to
be setting itself up as a humanist doctrine of universality and
above all, paradoxically individualist with the aim of asserting
the right of everyone to a minimum of inalienable rights. Human
rights have been deliberately violated throughout the history of
humanity, leading to the most heinous atrocities such as slavery,
genocide, wars, radical segregation and many other scourges.
