In this book, experts from Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Daoism, Hinduism and Confucianism discuss the tension between their religious traditions and the claim of universality of human rights. The East-West contrast is particularly evident with regards to human rights. Some writers find the human rights language too individualistic and it is foreign to major religions where the self does not exist in isolation, but is normally immersed in a web of relations and duties towards family, friends, religion community, and society. Is the human rights discourse a predominantly Western liberal ideal, which in bioethics is translated to mean autonomy and free choice? In today's democratic societies, laws have been drafted to protect individuals and communities against slavery, discrimination, torture or genocide. Yet, it appears unclear at what moment universal rights supersede respect for cultural diversity and pluralism. This collection of articles demonstrates a rich spectrum of positions among different religions, as they confront the ever more pressing issues of bioethics and human rights in the modern world. This book is intended for those interested in the contemporary debates on religious ethics, human rights, bioethics, cultural diversity and multiculturalism. 000800198 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed October 5, 2017). 000800198 650_0 $$aHuman rights$$xReligious aspects. 000800198 650_0 $$aBioethics$$xReligious aspects. 000800198 7001_ $$aTham, Joseph,$$eeditor. 000800198 7001_ $$aKwan, Kai Man,$$eeditor. 000800198 7001_ $$aGarcia, Alberto,$$eeditor. 000800198 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319584294$$z3319584294$$w(OCoLC)982651820 000800198 830_0 $$aAdvancing global bioethics ;$$v6. 000800198 852__ $$bebk 000800198 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-58431-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000800198 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:800198$$pGLOBAL_SET 000800198 980__ $$aEBOOK 000800198 980__ $$aBIB 000800198 982__ $$aEbook 000800198 983__ $$aOnline 000800198 994__ $$a92$$bISE
