Collating the concepts of vulnerability through five regional perspectives on bioethics from the United States, Europe, Latin America, Africa, and Asia, this article proposes a means of integration between the different approaches in order to seek a theoretical and normative basis for the field of global bioethics. It argues that only through opening continuous, critical, and self-critical dialogue within the international bioethical community will it be possible to achieve a sufficiently global understanding of vulnerability that is capable of identifying the means needed for addressing the conditions that leave certain groups and individuals more susceptible to "wounding" than others.
通过整合来自美国、欧洲、拉丁美洲、非洲和亚洲的五个区域生物伦理视角下的脆弱性概念，本文提出了一种整合不同方法的途径，以便为全球生物伦理领域寻求理论和规范基础。文章认为，只有通过在国际生物伦理学界开展持续、批判性和自我批判性的对话，才有可能对脆弱性达成足够全球化的理解，从而能够确定所需手段，以应对使某些群体和个人比其他群体和个人更容易受到“伤害”的状况。
