Fundamental Problems Legal Research in Bioethics

Abstract

Formulation of the problem. Rapid global scientific and technological progress has an increasing impact on the quality of life and human health and urgently requires fundamental legal research in connection with the ethical consequences of the ongoing fundamental changes. Analysis of scientific trends and paradigms in the field of medical law and legal support of innovative biomedical technologies is the goal of this study. Goals and objectives. Modern innovations in the field of bioethics, which fundamentally change a person's attitude to the world and to himself, are ahead of the formation of appropriate legal decisions. The challenges and biomedical collisions that occurred to humanity by the middle of the 20th century and continue to this day lead to a violation of the harmony of nature and man. Additional, primarily legal, efforts are required to restore balance and ensure the future of humanity. The range of tasks of this research includes: to identify social and social needs and features of the formation of ethical and legal institutions in the field of bioethics; to identify research trends in the field of implementation of international bioethical norms in national legislation and optimization of government policies. Results and brief conclusions. This study makes it possible to differentiate multidirectional bioethical research into formalized and non-formalizable issues of biomedicine in the context of the effective implementation of innovations from science and technology and the potential for their compliance with legal paradigms. Fundamental research in the field of bioethics concentrates around the study of gaps and conflicts in the regulatory framework, precise definition of basic concepts, establishment of legal responsibility for violation of human rights and freedoms, distribution of powers and responsibilities of state bodies to ensure human rights to safety of life and health. Insufficient detailing of legislation in the field of bioethics and medical law does not meet modern requirements in the relationship between the state, patients and the biomedical community, and minimizes the human rights to a quality level of health guaranteed by the constitution and laws.
