A BIOÉTICA COMO GATILHO DA EVOLUÇÃO DA LEI NATURAL

Abstract

Objective: The purpose of the article was to determine the relationship between the concepts of "jus naturale" and "global bioethics", as well as to clarify their significance for rule-making activity. Theoretical framework: The introduction of the concept of "neo jus naturale" into the scientific circulation is justified, which is understood as a new stage of the evolution of jus naturale and the basis for the formation of a renewed type of legal understanding - bioethical. Neo jus naturale is considered as the foundation of modern law-making. Method: The methodology of the research is: firstly, the unification of the concept of legal-positivist and natural-law types of legal understanding in the phenomenon of "bioethics" with the dominance of the natural-legal type of legal understanding in this synthesis; secondly, a change in worldview positions from anthropocentrism to ecocentrism. From research methods, both traditional, for example, historical, and non-traditional methods, for example, Gestalt approach, were used. Results and conclusion: The articles illustrate the relationship between the concepts of "jus naturale" and "global bioethics" and their significance for rule-making. The definitions of natural law and bioethics are analysed and their meaningful analysis is carried out. Implications of the research: The research provides valuable insights into the relationship between "jus naturale" and "global bioethics" and their significance for rule-making. It contributes to the ongoing discussion on the evolution of legal understanding and the integration of ethical principles in a globalized world. Originality/value: It was found that global bioethics reflects the synthesis of two main concepts of legal understanding (natural and positivist), which can be recognized as the next step in the culture of development and knowledge of the phenomenon of law.
