Title: Raskorak makedonskog obrazovnog sustava i svjetskih obrazovnih tendencija s obzirom na (bio)etičku edukaciju


Author: Donev, Dejan



Abstract: What bioethics, from its formal definition represents, "systematic research of moral dimensions – including moral views, decisions, behavior and acts – in case of life knowledge and wellness which at the same time uses different ethical methodologies in interdisciplinary environment", and even more like Otfried Höffe in his "Ethical lexicon" says, "bioethics is understood as interdisciplinary science based on survival which primary goal is building bridges between spiritual and natural knowledge" - alongside them, it's all clear: bioethics is more than needed in facing and solving current problems of human supine behavior, especially the abuse found in biotechnical revolution! So, perhaps we can say that we will climb on that bridge to the future? In that context, bioethics can be considered and used as one of the most powerful and constructive resourses for solving the problem of universal existence and survival, through its study into the educational system because it is very efficient database for creating and developing new forms of rigorous human consciousness and self-awareness. This means that it is more than even necessary to introduce bioethics in the educational process. While the world is working on preparation of the worst possible scenario according to climate change and other factors, at the very same time this same world is doing its best for including bioethics and bioethical education to become an active parts of saving lives and living. What happens on the Balkan peninsula? Except the honorable attempts of Slovenia, Croatia, parts of Bosnia and Serbia, in the South, things do not substantially change! The author's intention of this article is to visualize what they are, and how the (bio)ethical issues and problems are discussed in the Macedonian educational system, primarily in elementary and secondary education, and most importantly, why this is so, what do we want to do and where do we head for?
