New Atlantis Cover 2004 Spring

By Eric Brown
Posted: Monday, April 5, 2004


ARTICLE
The New Atlantis, Number 5, Spring 2004, pp. 37-53.  
Publication Date: April 5, 2004

The bioethics debate in Germany is changing—with new biotechnologies like stem cell research raising new questions, and the German people forced to ask anew what human dignity is and means. Eric Brown surveys the past, present, and future of bioethics in Germany, and asks whether today’s ethical boundaries will persist or erode.
