Focusing on a dialogic approach to ethical decision-making in clinical settings, this book advocates for inclusive and reflective conversations among stakeholders. Drawing on Jürgen Habermas's discourse theory, it proposes a proportionist method that balances traditional ethical frameworks with the realities of patient care. Emphasizing mutual understanding of diverse values, the book aims to foster consensus in life-and-death decisions, addressing contemporary challenges posed by advanced medical technologies and multiculturalism.
