Weisstub, University of Montreal Fac. Medicine, Montreal, QC, Canada Dennis R. Cooley, North Dakota State University, History, Philosophy, and Religious Studies, Fargo, ND, USA Founded by Thomasine Kimbrough Kushner, Berkely, USA David C. Thomasma, Dordrecht, The Netherlands David N. Weisstub, Montreal, Canada The book series International Library of Ethics, Law and the New Medicine comprises volumes with an international and interdisciplinary focus. The aim of the Series is to publish books on foundational issues in (bio) ethics, law, international health care and medicine. The 28 volumes that have already appeared in this series address aspects of aging, mental health, AIDS, preventive medicine, bioethics and many other current topics. This Series was conceived against the background of increasing globalization and interdependency of the world’s cultures and govern- ments, with mutual influencing occurring throughout the world in all fields, most surely in health care and its delivery. By means of this Series we aim to contribute and cooperate to meet the challenge of our time: how to aim human technology to good human ends, how to deal with changed values in the areas of religion, society, culture and the self-definition of human persons, and how to formulate a new way of thinking, a new ethic. We welcome book proposals representing the broad interest of the interdisciplinary and international focus of the series. -
The Question of Identity Between the Restorative and Regenerative Organ Transplantations
Revelation and Science Vol. 08, No. 02 (1440H/2018) 13-20 The Question of Identity between the Restorative and Regenerative Organ Transplantations 1Ibrahim Shogar*, 2Nazri Mohd Yusof, 1Mohamad Ariff Bin Mohamad Yussoff, 1Mohd. Azid Bin Mat Din, 1Iswatun Hasanah Bt. Abdullah Ripain, 1Iffah Inani Bt. Hashim, 1Fatihah Bt. Mohd. Yusof 1Kulliyyah of Science, 2Kulliyyah of Medicine, International Islamic University Malaysia, IIUM. Jalan Sultan Ahmad Shah, Bandar Indera Mahkota, 25200 Kuantan, Pahang Darul Makmur, Malaysia Abstract This paper explores implications of organ transplantation on identity and body integrity. It investigates how advancements in transplant technologies can affect and reshape our conception of identity at individual and social levels. The question of identity as a distinctive code for every organism is increasingly becoming important due to the advanced biomedical technologies and its legal, ethical, and social implications. Modes of organ transplantation, in this paper are divided into two major types (i) restorative and (ii) regenerative. Both types have important implications on conception of identity, at various levels, from both biological and social perspectives. While highlighting all these dimensions, this article focuses on implications of restorative organ transplantation on identity based on four specific cases, which are: (i) hand transplantation, (ii) facial transplantation, (iii) reproductive organ transplantation, and (iv) head / body transplantation. Investigating all these cases, the paper has concluded that while the advanced biomedical technology is essential for survival of many lives, application of such technologies must be consistent with moral values and the universal principles for human dignity and body integrity.
