Abstract
Daniel Callahan, pionero de la bioética dedicó gran parte de sus estudios
a la salud pública, tema obligado de esta disciplina he intentó introducir en
la medicina y la biología, la ética. El objetivo del presente estudio es dar una
mirada general a la obra de Callahan y constatar cómo incluso en la salud
pública se instaló la tiranía, aspecto inspirado de la filosofía socrática. Para
alcanzar este propósito se indagó sobre el pensamiento del autor en diversas
fuentes (libros, entrevistas, artículos) para así, reconstruir sus ideas. Callahan
no se limita a hacer denuncias sobre las tiranías de la supervivencia, la tecnología, el individualismo y la salud, al contrario, en sus libros se dedica a la
construcción y defensa del sistema de salud universal, solidario, equitativo,
el cual, no debe depender de la capacidad de pago. Así mismo, sugiere que
se considere el futuro de la bioética como una propuesta interdisciplinaria.
