Discussing HUGO: the German debate on the ethical implications of the Human Genome Project.

The current German criticism of HUGO centers around the term 'human dignity'; consenquentialist and autonomy-based arguments are used. The debate culminates in questioning the integrity of bioethics as a scholarly discipline and has created a heterogeneous coalition of disparate political and social groups that oppose any research that would facilitate genetic pre-selection of human characteristics.

[Interaction-directed nursing ethics. Sketch of an integrated theory, didactics and methodology of nursing ethics].

The articles seeks to outline an integrated theory, didactics, and methodology of nursing ethics. To do so requires an analysis of the social and institutional situation in which nursing takes place as well as reflections on the theoretical status of nursing ethics as part of so-called applied ethics. From this starting point didactical and methodological conclusions may be drawn which finally lead to an interaction oriented ethics of nursing.
