- Title
LA CONTROVERSIA SOBRE LA VIVISECCIÓN.
- Authors
Álvarez-Díaz, Jorge Alberto
- Abstract
The paper reviews the vivisection in nonhuman animals and whether it is justifiable nowadays from a bioethical point of view. The work departs with a brief historical perspective about the animal vivisection topic until the new outbreak of the controversy in the twentieth century. It reflects on the ethics of the relation between human beings and animals, concluding that nowadays animal vivisection could only be justified in truly exceptional situations; otherwise, it would be contrary to ethics.
