La bioética jurídica islámica como fenómeno jurídico-cultural regional: Tensiones internas y externas en la actualidad producidas en su inserción como derechos humanos

Abstract

This paper is the third Part of a Trilogy around the socalled Islamic World. It presents us the "Islamic bioethics" as a legal regional phenomenon instead of an international one, as believed in the West World. It contains a glossary sui generis with specifically Islamic connotations. It means, with similarities and differences far away from the usefully ones in the West World and Spain, so that a big amount of mistakes of interpretation can be avoided, because the aimed words are written in similar way but with very different signification. The paper analyzes the tensions produced in and outside of the Islamic World by associating bioethics and human rights. Such a situation reproduces -in the meaning of the author- another old problem up-to-day not resolved, the so-called "Universal human rights versus regional Islamic human rights". A selected bibliography in the end contains specifically themes of human rights, Islamic bioethics and constitutionalism, and finally the own contributions of the author.
