Sumari:This chapter claims that ethics, as important as it is, consists in caring only about human beings; quite on the contrary, bioethics entails an understanding and caring about life in general, not just about human existence. Straightforwardly said, bioethics starts there where ethics finds its own limits. Thereafter, three axes of reflection help define the argument just mentioned, namely: a consideration about the origin and nature of ethics, a (brief) examination about the birth and characteristics of bioethics, and the inflection constitutive of the shift toward life and nature. Currently, we are witnessing the transition from a conception (and relation) eminently anthropological, anthropomorphic, and anthropocentric of the world and reality to a connection and view much more ecocentric or biocentric. It Is such a turn, it is argued here, what allow understanding some of the recent preoccupations in fields such as legal studies, sociology, politics and history, most notably.
