Aprašymas

The debate over the ethics of abortion and euthanasia continues to be dominated by the Anglo-American philosophical traditions. This book demonstrates that African moral theories can introduce important new perspectives, contributing towards the globalisation of the field of bioethics.

The book critically compares and contrasts African normative theories based on normative personhood, harmonious relationships, and vitalism, systematically assessing them against the ethics of abortion and euthanasia. Specifically, it assesses various ideas and arguments for and against abortion and euthanasia in the Anglo-American tradition.

This important work of cross-cultural philosophy will be an important read for researchers working on African philosophy, bioethics, and comparative philosophy.
