Overview: Provides a critical overview on the existing range of methods in bioethics.Clarifies issues in interdisciplinary collaboration between ethics, social sciences and medicine in bioethics.The introductioCHRISTOPH REHMANN-SUTTER, MARCUS DÜWELL, DIETMAR MIETH When we placed “finitude”, “limits of human existence” as a motto over a round of discussion on biomedicine and bioethics (which led to this collection of essays) we did not know how far this would lead us into methodological quandaries. However, we felt intuitively that an interdisciplinary approach including social and cultural sci
