These differences reflect the countries' historical legacies, medico-legal policies, normative and cultural identities. Building on this observation, the contributors of this book present conversations between leading scholars from Israel and Germany based on an empirical bioethical perspective, analyses about the reshaping of 'life' by biomedicine, and philosophical reflections on socio-cultural claims and epistemic horizons of responsibilities. Practices and discussions of reproductive medicine transform the concepts of responsibility, and irresponsibility.Bioethik, Medizinethik.BioethicsBioethics.174.2Braun Kathrin950512NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910634080903321Genetic Responsibility in Germany and Israel3363352UNINA
