The Common

The Trusted Doctor: Medical Ethics and Professionalism rejects the well-entrenched views of medical ethics as everyday ethics or common morality applied to medicine. This chapter lays the foundation for the original account of medical ethics that follows in the book’s succeeding chapters. By presenting vivid examples and general arguments the author demonstrates ways in which the ethics of medicine is distinct and different from common morality. The chapter discusses the most popular common morality views, namely, the four principles approach expounded by Tom Beauchamp and James Childress in Principles of Biomedical Ethics and the ten rules approach presented by Bernard Gert, Charles Culver, and K. Danner Clouser in Bioethics: A Systematic Approach by presenting arguments that challenge their applicability to medical practice. A chart identifies some stark differences between the common morality approach and good medical practice and shows how everyday ethics is incompatible with medical professionalism.

Ethical Perspectives

Ethical perspectives in dealing with conflict in the medical sciences Medical practice is daily confronted with the problem how to deal with ethical conflict. This matter becomes even more difficult when one deals with boarder-situations such as abortion and euthanasia. Here a choice is required between life and death. But it is important to bear in mind that approaching ethical situations requires knowledge of powers such as ideology, technique, etc and paradigms such as Christian anthropology which influence our decisions. Therefore, it seems that ethical models such as situation ethics and casuistry are insufficient to deal with the problem of conflict. In this paper a ethical model is presented to deal with conflict in medical ethics. This model - contextual normative ethics - tries to compromise an ethical dilemma.
