Abstract

The article explores the problems of bioethics in the cultural paradigm of post-modernism and the ways of their solution. Denying the realness of philosophical theories and universal principles in bioethics, postmodernism has generated a number of negative consequences. A large number of contradictory and mutually exclusive bioethical theories emerged. As a result, common bioethical principles, universal moral and cultural values are disappearing. The way out is phronesis (practical wisdom), which is carried out by judgments in each particular case. Phronesis judges from praxis, involves the implementation and development of values and standards in bioethics, underlies bioethical decision.
