The Place of Marginalization in Bioethics
Marginalization is a widely studied phenomenon and recognized as a critical topic in relation to health, shaping health inequities, access to resources, health outcomes, and policy decisions. However, despite its normative importance for health and justice, its conceptual role in bioethics remains unclear. This paper critically examines how marginalization is addressed in bioethics, analyzing its meaning, conceptual usage, and potential for furth…
Physicians’ ethical responsibilities in relation to the climate and further environmental crises
The climate and further environmental crises have motivated calls for the medical profession to act by taking on additional responsibilities. These calls to assume responsibilities towards environmental protection and to systematically consider the health impacts of these crises greatly vary in their scope and demandingness. Through a review of journal publications, we have mapped the various calls for physicians to take on responsibilities in re…
The Place of Justice and Vulnerability in Climate Resilience
Various understandings of “resilience” dominate debates on climate change without consensus on its ethical implications. Individualistic interpretations can conflict with ethical values like minimizing population harms and countering health inequities. More systemic, ecological interpretations may overlook justice concerns, such as who is more burdened or marginalized regarding climate impacts. This article argues for integrating a normative, jus…
Ethical challenges in health care during collective hunger strikes in public or occupied spaces
Public collective hunger strikes take place in complex social and political contexts, require medical attention and present ethical challenges to physicians. Empirical research, the ethical debate to date and existing guidelines by the World Medical Association focus almost exclusively on hunger strikes in detention. However, the public space differs substantially with regard to the conditions for the provision of health care and the diverse grou…
The ethics of mHealth as a global phenomenon
Sustainability transitions in university hospitals
While there is agreement on the need to improve sustainability in university hospitals, there are strong differences of opinion on how such goals interact with responsibilities of the medical profession, including research activities. To facilitate sustainability transitions in university hospitals, we need to gain a better understanding of the multiple incentive structures and ethical responsibilities related to sustainability that influence the…

Digitally supported public health interventions through the lens of structural injustice
Mobile applications (apps) have gained significant popularity as a new intervention strategy responding to violence against women and girls. Despite their growing relevance, an assessment from the perspective of public health ethics is still lacking. Here, we base our discussion on the understanding of violence against women and girls as a multidimensional, global public health issue on structural, societal and individual levels and situate it wi…
Employing Feminist Theory of Vulnerability to Interrogate the Implications of Covid-19 Apps in Racialized Subpopulations
Digital behavioral technology, vulnerability and justice
The paper introduces the notion of ‘digital behavioral technologies’ and discusses them from the perspectives of vulnerability and justice, thereby integrating perspectives from bioethics or public health ethics and political philosophy. Digital behavioral technologies have seen a massive uptake in recent years, but the market for them is hardly regulated. We argue that understanding the impact of digital behavioral technologies requires understa…
Introduction to the special issue ‘digital behavioral technologies, vulnerability, and justice’
This short introduction presents the theme of the special issue and provides a preview of the articles
Digital contact tracing and exposure notification
There is growing interest in contact tracing apps (CT apps) for pandemic management. It is crucial to consider ethical requirements before, while, and after implementing such apps. In this paper, we illustrate the complexity and multiplicity of the ethical considerations by presenting an ethical framework for a responsible design and implementation of CT apps. Using this framework as a starting point, we briefly highlight the interconnection of s…
Global justice and structural injustice
Refugees and others enduring displacement
As states persist in conceiving of asylum as a privilege rather than an entitlement, vast numbers of people displaced by conflict, disaster, famine, and dire poverty continue to dwell over long periods of time in conditions of isolation and severe deprivation.In this paper we contribute to the argument that long-term displacementthe fact of it and its management in settings such as refugee camps-is a manifestation of and perpetuates global struct…
Justice
Health policy and systems research (HPSR) is increasingly being funded and conducted worldwide. There are currently no specific guidelines or criteria for the ethical review and conduct of HPSR. Academic debates on HPSR ethics in the scholarly literature can inform the development of guidelines. Yet there is a deficiency of academic bioethics work relating to justice in HPSR. This gap is especially problematic for a field like HPSR, which can ent…

The influence of patients' immigration background and residence permit status on treatment decisions in health care. Results of a factorial survey among general practitioners in Switzerland
Ethical Implications of Case‐Based Payment in C hina
How health care providers are paid affects how medicine is practiced. It is thus important to assess provider payment models not only from the economic perspective but also from the ethical perspective. C hina recently started to reform the provider payment model in the health care system from fee‐for‐service to case‐based payment. This paper aims to examine this transition from an ethical perspective. We collected empirical studies on the impact…
Hymen reconstruction as pragmatic empowerment? Results of a qualitative study from Tunisia
The Ethics of Evidence
Basing normative judgment and policy on a rich empirical account of the issue at hand is usually a good idea. But doing nothing and awaiting further evidence can sometimes itself be bad judgment. This is the case with female genital cutting. We already know what is needed to define the conditions under which female genital cutting is morally unacceptable and that we can legitimately act on this knowledge
How are pregnant women vulnerable research participants
Despite the attempts to promote the inclusion of pregnant women into clinical research, this group is still widely excluded. An analysis of the “vulnerability of pregnant women” that questions deeply internalized stereotypes is necessary for finding the right balance in the protection of pregnant women as research participants. Criticism of the traditional account of vulnerability will lead to an alternative that focuses on situations rather than…
