On Human Rights and Freedom in Biomedical Ethics: A Christian Response to Ellen Zhang

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

In the effort to find convergence of ideas and applications from various traditions, the discussion of human rights and freedom from many religious and cultural perspectives is needed. This response to Zhang seeks to find that convergence among the Buddhist and a broad Christian view. As Zhang presents some compatibility, this response seeks to add to those ideas by speaking about the roles of justice, compassion, and self-determination in the field of medical bioethics.
