Reproduction and the Common Good

Theology

“This book listens to women around the world and brings to light the difficult living conditions under which these women have to make decisions for their families. It rightly draws attention to the common good and argues that this must include a holistic improvement of women’s reproductive health. This collaboration between moral theologians is a best practice example of synodality and solidarity at the global level.”

The Critique of Bioethical Principlism in Contrast to an African Approach to Bioethics

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

Foreword

“This is an extraordinary contribution to intercultural dialogue on bioethics. Jude Buyondo refrains from separating African ethics from Western ethics by claiming its ‘Africanness.’ The author argues that bioethical principles are common ground but, in order to be fruitfully applied in Africa, need to be interpreted in the light of the African view of the connectedness of all life. What is more, such an interpretation allows African ontologically founded solidarity to complement and permeate Western bioethical principles.”
