In this course, we will explore some of the current debates among different theoretical perspectives about the proper theoretical groundwork for bioethics and the methodologies associated with these diverse theories. We shall pay particular attention to canonical work in the field, such as the principles approach of Beauchamp and Childress, while examining feminist and other alternatives. We shall consider the ways different theories identify, frame, and reason about ethical questions that arise in the realm of health and healthcare.
