Organdonor Stories

Introduction This essay explores whether a market in human organs could exist without exploitation. Promoting freedom of choice and saving lives are both social goods, and allowing individuals to sell their organs would serve both these social ends. However, when dealing with questions of international policy, the most difficult ethical issue is not whether selling body parts is moral, but whether it is possible to ethically administer a global market in organs, given the current context of unpredictable and inequitable informed consent and contract enforcement regimes. Not all problems shared by nations have international solutions. Solving the human organ shortage is one of them. While compensating living kidney donors might serve as a good national policy if implemented correctly, a global market in kidneys is currently unethical given the unpre-dictability of enforcement of such contracts on the international level.

Living in Hawaii her whole life, Clara Stryder is more than accustomed to uncertainty. The people she sees walking along the beach today she most likely won't see tomorrow. The waves that crash against the shore today might not even make it to the shoreline tomorrow. The food that she has on her table today, her sister might not be able to afford tomorrow. The parents that were supposed to be there for her, her whole life are currently six feet underground. Nothing is ever certain for her. And after another death strikes her life, Clara does the only thing that any seventeen year old girl with nothing to loose would do. She decides to take a trip to the main land along with an ex-drug addict and her maybe boyfriend, to try to find some answers to the accidental death that has effected all of their lives. They decide to meet the people who's lives have been saved to the one that they have lost. Along the way they try to learn the answer to a very important question; why are we here? But as they all soon find out, inner demons get in the way of that and if they want to figure out the mystery they're going to have to try to put things together one piece at a time. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Introduction Collaborative arrangements between biomedical academic researchers and private industry have grown dramatically over the past three decades, resulting in medical innovations that have benefited society as a whole. However, a chorus of growing criticism directed at private companies that sponsor and conduct biomedical research casts doubt on the very ethos of science. Some academics and anti-business activists have waged a campaign against industry-sponsored clinical trials. That criticism denies the fundamentally commercial nature of such research, and therefore hinders medical progress. These critics point to a small number of unfortunate and tragic cases in which financial conflicts of interest may have played a role in research related injuries and deaths in order to unjustifiably condemn the profit motive in biomedical research as a whole. In response to claims that unchecked industry research has led-and will continue to lead-to disastrous outcomes, the Obama administration and the 111th Congress have promised stronger federal regulation and a far more aggressive role for the federal and state governments in the nation's biomedical economy.
