Description

Explore the deep history behind the modern debate on organ sales in this academic volume from Springer. While contemporary discussions often focus on current politics, this book provides a necessary remedy by examining the long-standing philosophical foundations that shape our views on the human body. This collection examines how positions regarding a market in human organs are rooted in moral intuitions, political theory, and ontological premises. By looking at the historical context of permissible uses of the body, readers gain a better understanding of the ethical concerns that drive today's medical and legal debates. The essays cover a wide range of influential perspectives, including the views of Plato, Aristotle, Aquinas, Locke, Kant, Hegel, and Mill. It also integrates religious viewpoints from Christianity and explores specific methodological approaches like natural law theory and the phenomenology of the body. This volume is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of philosophy, medicine, and ethics.
