This book explores the challenges of informed consent in medical
intervention and research ethics, considering the global reality of
multiculturalism and religious diversity. Even though informed
consent is a gold standard in research ethics, its theoretical
foundation is based on the conception of individual subjects making
autonomous decisions. There is a need to reconsider autonomy as
relational-where family members, community and religious leaders
can play an important part in the consent process. The volume
re-evaluates informed consent in multicultural contexts and
features perspectives from Buddhism, Confucianism, Hinduism,
Christianity, Judaism and Islam. It is valuable reading for
scholars interested in bioethics, healthcare ethics, research
ethics, comparative religions, theology, human rights, law and
sociology.
