Abstract

 Recently, the interest of philosophers, sociologists and society in general in the ethical aspects of scientific activity in the field of medicine and biology has significantly increased. The reason for this can be attributed to the rapid development of biomedical sciences and technologies in the last quarter of the 20th century. And this phenomenon led to the emergence of new problems, and the field of bioethics emerged to solve these problems.

The relevance of the topic of bioethics in the field of science was due to the transition of models of doctor-patient relations to a contractual direction in market conditions. Despite the existence of different points of view on the issue of bioethics, the lack of a sufficient conceptual theoretical basis leads to conflicts of different points of view in the field of bioethics. Our research topic considers various problems in modern bioethical theories (utilitarian, deontological, theory of moral obligations, etc.). Our article presents a philosophical analysis of various issues in the field of bioethics. This article considers scientific issues related to the axiological, ontological, epistemological, stratificational and interdisciplinary areas of bioethics.

Key words: medicine, ethics, bioethics, norms, paradigms, deontology, obligations.
