Difficult choices: Moral decision making and genetic technologies.
Cassis, Violette Rawhy.

Difficult choices: Moral decision making and genetic technologies. - 153 p.

Adviser: Leslie J. Miller.

Thesis (M.A.)--University of Calgary (Canada), 2002.

This thesis explores the choices ordinary people make about the use of medical, genetic technologies against the background of professional, principle-based ethics. I compare the moral questions that ordinary social actors raise when they encounter these technologies with the concerns that bioethicists raise about their use. Excerpts from an Internet forum about the medical applications of genetic technologies provide the data for my analysis. My goal is to explore the differences between the “textually mediated” accounts of bioethics and the ordinary accounts that emerge from the everyday world of lived experience. Throughout, I draw on the perspectives of Ulrich Beck, Zygmunt Bauman and Dorothy Smith to frame my discussion of moral decisionmaking, the risks genetic technologies pose, and the moral dilemmas they present.
