Research On "Biopiracy" From The Perspective Of Scientific And Technological Ethics

The main research object of this paper is "biopiracy".Corresponding to this object,there are three interrelated research dimensions: the cognitive level,the institutional level and the moral and ethical level.On the cognitive level,this paper attempts to clarify the meaning of the word "biopiracy" and its origin.At the institutional level,this paper attempts to analyze the biodiversity treaty and the intellectual property system from the perspective of "biopiracy",revealing the inherent contradiction between the two.At the moral and ethical level,through the analysis of roles and responsibilities,from the knowledge of the ancient Greek ethics and ethics of science and technology,modern feminist theory perspective expounds why biopiracy is a moral and ethical issues of concern,and put forward two new corresponding possible solutions: Making intellectual property suitable for local knowledge and constructing feminist discourse power.At the end of this paper,I try to make a conclusion based on the research of "biopiracy",and affirm that knowledge and morality are closely linked,and technology should aim at goodness,because these are closely related to the future well-being of the whole mankind.
