Intro; Contents; Foreword; Introduction Knowing how to say Goodbye to outdated Notions; I. Person and privacy; II. Nature, law, and rule; III. Bayesianism and game theory; IV. Categorical imperative and hypothetical imperatives in ethics of care; V. Game theory, economic values, and ethical values in medicine; VI. Conclusions; VII. Presentation of the chapters; Chapter I Critique of Autonomy; I. The contradictions of the notion of autonomy in its classical use; II. The game of masks of creation and consent; III. Autonomy still contains contradictions in multiple senses.
IV. The particular distortion between the ethical notion of autonomy among caregivers and the homonymous notion of philosophersV. The notion of autonomy divides the individual against himself; VI. Utilitarianism engulfs itself in the distortions of the notion of autonomy; VII. However, that a notion is contradictory-as is the case of autonomy-is not necessarily an objection against it; VIII. Bentham between Pascal and Lacan; IX. Conclusions; Chapter II Is Dignity an Ethical Value beyond all Suspicion?
I.I start by looking at some of the many contradictions that cut across it, leaving its major axis. II. I deepen the consequences of previous divisions and consider the opportunities they offer to hypocrisy and cynicism. Or, the game of human life and its conditions.; III. What does dignity say?; IV. Conclusion; Chapter III The Need for Utilitarianism in Ethics; I.A loyal utilitarianism; II. The sovereignty of the state as regards religions.
III. Philosophy of care and autonomy. The more or less implicit criticism that this philosophy contains the theory of principles as envisaged by Beauchamp and ChildressIV. The philosophy of ethics in Moral Thinking; V. Intuition and criticism; VI. The logical treatment of principles; VII. The fundamental question of examples; VIII. The requirements for the calculation of preferences; IX. The characteristics of moral judgment; X. Conclusions; Chapter IV Is the Value of Intimacy incompatible with Utilitarianism?; I. One can attempt the determination of intimacy by a series of negations.
II. Jankélévitch's positionIII. The dialectic of intimacy; IV. The articulation of principles; V. Conclusions; Chapter V Conclusion; Bibliography; Index Nominum; Index Rerum.
Summary: In this unique study, Jean-Pierre Clero examines medical ethics from a philosophical perspective. Based on the thoughts of great philosophers, he develops a theory of medical ethics that focuses on the values of intimacy.
