A Critical History of Bioethics

Abstract

In this chapter Evans defines a “critical disability studies bioethics.” Evans defines the possibility space of such a position by giving a critical history of bioethics in general, focusing on biases that make difficult being both a disability studies scholar and a bioethicist. He argues that concerns of critical disability studies may be hard to integrate with mainstream bioethics.
