Cherry 09050-Prelims.qxd 06/Aug/03 5:02 PM Page x 09050-Prelims.qxd 06/Aug/03 5:02 PM Page xi Preface to a new series Annals of Bioethics: A Forum of Foundational, Clinical and Emerging Topics Bioethics has become a truly international phenomenon. Through foundational philosophi- cal, religious, and cultural perspectives, clinical case studies, and legal analysis, the Annals of Bioethics documents, reviews, and explores emerging bioethical viewpoints as well as the state-of-the-art of this global endeavor. In so doing, the Annals is, perhaps inadvertently, as much on the nature and depth of our contemporary moral and cultural conflicts as it is on biomedical ethics. Bioethics is grounded in and has implications for the religious, political, and legal elements of cul- tures. As a field of inquiry, bioethics has coveted an international political forum. Secular Western bioethics in particular lays claim to a universal account of proper moral deport- ment, including the foundations of law and public policy, as well as the moral authority for national and international institutions to guarantee uniformity of practice, secure basic human rights, and promote social justice. Bioethical expertise is widely sought in the fram- ing of public and institutional policy. Witness, for example, the broad advisory role of the President’s Council on Bioethics in the United States, as well as the European Bioethics Convention, which sought not merely to explain or analyze moral issues but to justify politi- cal resolutions. Similarly, bioethicists regularly provide testimony as expert witnesses in courts of law. They present themselves as experts of moral rationality and principles of moral probity, including permissible standards of evidence and inference. Religious and cultural moral diversity runs deep; it strides the divisions that separate regional, religious, and cultural biomedical and moral perspectives. This series illustrates the ways in which the national and international political landscape compasses persons from diverse and often fragmented moral communities with widely varying moral intuitions, premises, evaluations, and commitments. The various volumes explore, document, and criti- cally appreciate diverse moral, cultural, and religious viewpoints representing the various regions of the world, from mainland China and Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, India and East Asia more generally, to Europe, the Middle East, Australia and New Zealand, to South America and North America. Moral perspectives range from Orthodox Christianity, Roman Catholicism, and contemporary Protestant Christianity, to Orthodox, Conservative and Reformed Judaism, to Islam, Buddhism, Confucianism, Hinduism, and so forth, to secular liberal egalitarianism. The goal of the series is to document and review the often widely 09050-Prelims.qxd 06/Aug/03 5:02 PM Page xii xii PREFACE TO A NEW SERIES varying bioethical perspectives reflected throughout the international community’s regions, religions, laws and policies. The Annals of Bioethics compasses updates in moral theory, normative health care practice, case studies, and public policy. The series begins with three foundational volumes: Regional Perspectives in Bioethics; Religious Perspectives in Bioethics; and Legal Perspectives in Bioethics, which establish an initial framework. Future volumes will document and assess legal, religious and cultural responses to specific aspects of the fast paced developments in health care and medical technology. Future areas to be explored include such contentious issues as abortion, euthanasia, prenatal genetic screening, parental discretion regarding treat- ment of neonates, genetic engineering, sex reassignment surgery, reproductive technologies, and cloning, as well as the permissible foundations and limits of biomedical ethics and health care policy. Biomedical policy must be created to span a diverse set of individuals, cultures, and communities. Political struggles regard the structure and content of what will become the prevailing medical, moral, and social ethos. Such discussions concern not merely which policies will best achieve the desired objectives, but which objectives are themselves desirable; that is, which moral understanding should be established (e.g., pro-choice or pro-life; indi- vidual versus family or community oriented consent), utilizing which school of practice (traditional Chinese or Western medicine, allopathic, homeopathic, naturopathic, or chi- ropractic health care, and so forth), at what standard of care (e.g., guaranteed equal access for all, or with regional variation, or varying levels of access depending on insurance cov- erage). There exists a significant plurality of fundamentally different,

  • Review of Hasna Begum, Moore's Ethics; Tom Regan, Bloomsbury's Prophet; Moore, the Early Essays, E
    80 Russell summer 1989 Reviews 81 Alan and Veronica Palmer. Who's Who in Bloomsbury. Brighton: Harvester Press; New York: St. Martin's Press, 1987. Pp. xi, 215. US$29.95. 1 G.E. MOORE DIED, a grand old man, in 1958. At the time of his death he was respected as an exponent of common-sense philosophy and a precursor of ordinary-language philosophy, which was then fashionable. To admit, as Moore admitted (in Schilpp, p. 14), that philosophical problems were not suggested to him by the world, but only by what philosophers had said about the world, wa~ taken to indicate, not a certain narrowness of vision, but a deep wisdom­ the sign of a man who knows which part of the apple's got the worm. In these respects Moore seemed in the 1950'S a much more modern figure than Russell, whose view that philosophy should aim at a reform of the fabric of knowledge was dismissed as nineteenth-century megalomania. With the subsequent evap­ oration of ordinary-language philosophy, Moore's reputation has suffered a decline. It is only recently that he has come to be seen in historical perspective, and what now seems of most importance is his early work. What he wrote after about 1903, when Principia E thica and "The Refutation ofIdealism" appeared, seems, with one or two exceptions, ofmuch less interest. Like almost everyone else, Russell thought Moore's Ethics (1912) "very poor",2 but he also thought that even Principia Ethica was "nothing like so good" as "The Nature ofJudg­ ment", in which Moore firmly parted company with neo-Hegelianism and Moore and Bloomsbury began the development of analytic philosophy.3 There is something to be said for Russell's judgment (much of it revealed, however unwillingly, by Begum's by Nicholas Griffin book).

    The London School of Economics and Political Science Mediated tensions: Italian newspapers and the legal recognition of de facto unions Marina Franchi A thesis submitted to the Gender Institute of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, May 2015 1 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work. The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 88924 words. Statement of use of third party for editorial help (if applicable) I can confirm that my thesis was copy edited for conventions of language, spelling and grammar by Hilary Wright 2 Abstract The recognition of rights to couples outside the institution of marriage has been, and still is, a contentious issue in Italian Politics. Normative notions of family and kinship perpetuate the exclusion of those who do not conform to the heterosexual norm. At the same time the increased visibility of kinship arrangements that evade the heterosexual script and their claims for legal recognition, expose the fragility and the constructedness of heteronorms. During the Prodi II Government (2006-2008) the possibility of a law recognising legal status to de facto unions stirred a major controversy in which the conservative political forces and the Catholic hierarchies opposed any form of recognition, with particular acrimony shown toward same sex couples.
