Abstract
The
primary purpose of the research reported in this article is to propose a
methodological approach to the teaching of bioethics in Russia. The
American practice of teaching bioethics was chosen as a reference
considering their extensive experience of teaching bioethics in medical
universities. The conceptual information process model was used to
perform interdisciplinary research on the problem. The conceptual
information process model enabled us to adopt the American bioethics
curriculum in accordance with Russian traditions of medical education. A
new bioethics curriculum is proposed based on this model. The
information process model not only reveals the mechanism of social
self-organization, but also gives a methodological “clue” for creating a
cross-disciplinary curriculum. This curriculum will permit researchers
to access, negotiate and overcome fundamental differences between Russia
and the USA in the teaching of bioethics.
