FONTI, Diego  e  STAUBER, Juan Carlos. Responsability to the commodification of death (How bioethics can save life to death). Andamios [online]. 2017, vol.14, n.33, pp.77-101. ISSN 2594-1917.

This paper is a bioethical approach to the contemporary experience of dying, with a particular concern for the difficulty of dying persons for appropriating and living meaningfully this event. The main structural traits of contemporary death are exposed, such as the role of technology and institutions, the transformation of death in a ware, and the type of concealment and depersonalization due to it. From there on some criteria will be proposed to “save” death, such as a solidary understanding of autonomy, a relationship with economical responsibility in discussions on justice and access to sanitary goods, and a critical reflection from the viewpoint of those who are victims of technological processes and of the commodification of life and death.

Palavras-chave : Death; bioethics; autonomy; responsibility.
