Abstract

Le droit biomédical constitue un point de rencontre entre la science, la médecine, l'éthique et le droit avec leurs effets sur l'être humain. Les progrès de la biologie et de la médecine ont sorti le corps humain, la vie privée, le foetus et même le cadavre de leur sphère intime. Ce qui soulève une foule de problèmes juridiques. Au plan de la liberté personnelle, le droit à l'autodétermination constitue une valeur essentielle, le noyau dur des droits du malade. Mais si la personne est incapable de consentir? Et si des choix lourds s'imposent, peut-on décider à sa place? Et qui pourrait s'arroger un pouvoir de vie et de mort? Au plan des choix procréatifs, tout sujet a-t-il un accès à la procréation médicalement assistée? Et si le couple change d'avis, que doit-on faire des embryons prévus initialement pour induire une grossesse? Et l'enfant conçu par insémination hétérologue a-t-il un droit de connaître son père biologique? Quant à l'enfant handicapé, a-t-il un droit à ne pas être né et à réclamer une indemnisation à ceux qui l'ont fait naître ainsi? La médecine prédictive ne remet-elle pas en cause les droits de l'individu à son identité, à sa vie privée et familiale? Comment éviter les abus de la part des tiers? Pour répondre à ces questions, l'auteure rend compte de l'état du droit dans le domaine de la biomédecine qu'elle articule en trois parties: le droit, la médecine et les âges de la vie, puis le droit, la médecine et les choix procréatifs, enfin le droit, la médecine et les biotechnologies.

Abstract

In his fascinating new book, Jonathan D. Moreno investigates the deeply intertwined worlds of cutting-edge brain science, U.S. defense agencies, and a volatile geopolitical landscape where a nation's weaponry must go far beyond bombs and men. The first-ever exploration of the connections between national security and brain research, 'Mind Wars: Brain Research and National Defense' reveals how many questions crowd this gray intersection of science and government and urges us to begin to answer them. From neuropharmacology to neural imaging to brain-machine interface devices that relay images and sounds between human brains and machines, Moreno shows how national security entities seek to harness the human nervous system in a multitude of ways as a potent weapon against the enemy soldier. Moreno charts such projects as monkeys moving robotic arms with their minds, technology to read the brain's thought patterns at a distance, the development of "anti-sleep" drugs to enhance soldiers' battle performance and others to dampen their emotional reactions to the violence, and advances that could open the door to "neuroweapons"& virus-transported molecules to addle the brain. "As new kinds of weapons are added to the arsenal already at the disposal of fallible human leaders," Moreno writes, "we need to find new ways to address the problem"--of the ethical military application of so powerful and intimate a science. This book is the first step in confronting the quandaries inherent in this partnership of government and neuroscience, serves as a compelling wake-up call for scientists and citizens, and suggests that, with imagination, we might meet the needs of both security and civil liberty.

Abstract

Lainie Ross presents a rigorous critical investigation of the development of policy governing the involvement of children in medical research. She examines the shift in focus from protection of medical research subjects, enshrined in post-World War II legislation, to the current era in which access is assuming greater precedence. Infamous studies such as Willowbrook (where mentally retarded children were infected with hepatitis) are evidence that before the policy shift protection was not always adequate, even for the most vulnerable groups. Additional safeguards for children were first implemented in many countries in the 1970s and 1980s; more recent policies and guidelines are trying to promote greater participation. Ross examines whether the safeguards work, whether they are fair, and how they apply in actual research practice, and she offers specific recommendations to modify current policies and guidelines.
