Abstract
This article shows how the original insights that arose during the foundation of bioethics by Fritz
Jahr and Van Resselaer Potter and were forgotten in the early stages of the evolution of the
discipline are being newly recovered in two ways that lead to a bioethics that is needed in the era
of globalization. On the one hand, it is possible to link the bioethics of Jahr and Potter with the
tradition of environmental ethics and ethics of responsibility. On the other hand, the dominant
bioethical tradition in recent decades is starting to be overcome owing to the growing social,
economic, and environmental effects of globalization. The recovery of the foundational concept of
Jahr and Potter’s bioethics is just a starting point for the construction of a global bioethics. Based
on this recognition, the author proposes a framework of principles for a global bioethics.
