This book addresses the problem of how to make
democratically-legitimate public policy on issues of contentious
bioethical debate. It focuses on ethical contests about research
and their legitimate resolution, while addressing questions of
political legitimacy. How should states make public policy on
issues where there is ethical disagreement, not only about
appropriate outcomes, but even what values are at stake? What
constitutes justified, democratic policy in such conflicted
domains? Case studies from Canada and Australia demonstrate that
two countries sharing historical and institutional characteristics
can reach different policy responses. This book is of interest to
policymakers, bioethicists, and philosophers, and will deepen our
understanding of the interactions between large-scale
socio-political forces and detailed policy problems in bioethics.
