| Research Abstract |
This research project examined the characteristics of bioethics as originated in the United States and later imported to Japan. As there has been a lack of perspective in regards to civilization theory, history, meta-sciences, criticism of economics, and bio-power in the field of bioethics, we explored possible reforms of bioethics from a Japanese perspective and for application in Japan. Outcomes of the research and discussions of this project were woven into the book, "For Development of Meta-Bioethics : Inquiring Bioethics Again," NTT Press, 2010, co-authored by the project members. Also, through reading related literature and oral-history research, project members examined Japanese science, thought, religion and politics of the 1970s and 1980s when bioethics was first introduced into Japan. This approach was unprecedented at home and abroad and thus was highly reputed through book reviews and related conferences.
