Epistemic authority in deliberative and interpretive empirical bioethics
Jackie Leach Scully
(University of New South Wales)
Send message to Author
Paper short abstract:
In this presentation I highlight an important distinction that has so far been underemphasised in empirical bioethics: between interpretive and deliberative methodologies, and in particular, the difference in the epistemic authority to which each can lay claim.
Paper long abstract:
The flourishing of the empirical bioethics literature over the last two decades has led to numerous attempts at developing typologies of different approaches. In this presentation I highlight an important distinction that has so far been underemphasized: between interpretive and deliberative methodologies, and in particular, the difference in the epistemic authority to which each can lay claim.
This is a short 'impulse presentation' for the roundtable following the longer paper presentations in this session.
