Segato, Rita Laura2025-01-232015https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14135/1641This work aims at presenting a discussion about the fundamentals and methodologies of an Islamic bioethics based on a reflection about the shariah, considering its constitution as the corpus of legal and theological thought from which Islamic bioethics reclaims the ethical formulations to be applied to concrete cases related to moral conflict involving health issues. As Islamic bioethics is a product of modernity, it becomes necessary to understand the phenomena of Islam and the shariah from that historical standpoint but also from the perspective of critical thought about it, that is, de-colonial thought. Islamic feminisms are presented also both as criticism of modernity, as they talk about the project of de-colonial feminisms, that is, from a standpoint of criticism of western feminism, but also as a criticism of what we refer to as modern Islam. They will provide the necessary epistemological frame for a critical discussion of the bases on which Islamic bioethics stands today.Documento textualporAcesso abertoIslamismoColonialidadeFeminismoBioéticaDissertação
