Los comitès de ètica, desde un punto de vista ètico-normativo, corren el riesgo del formalismo y el riesgo del relativismo. Para encontrar una base común al interno de una sociedad marcada por un fuerte pluralismo moral, se debe buscar la fundamentación de un principio regulador capaz de evitar el relativismo, la dignidad de la persona. Proponienendo un esquema èticonormativo inspirado en la tradición kantiana, interpretada desde una perspectiva personalista, el autor considera que el sistema de referencia adecuado para sustentar la práctica deliberativa de los Comitès èticos y, más en general, capaz de constituir el criterio de fondo de una bioètica compartida, puede ser individuado en la idea de la "dignidad humana". Esta referencia indica un nucleo ètico mínimo, cuya función es esencialmente delimitar la línea de confín en el espacio recíprocamente inviolable, y encuentra su expresión en el respeto por la humanidad en toda persona como fin. Considerando las presiones mas o menos explícitas a las que se ven expuestos los Comitès èticos, es necesaria un fundamento moral para poder interpretar las exigencias de la dignidad humana frente al cambio del obrar humano.
----------
From an ethical-normative point of view, ethics committees must face the problem of formalism and relativism. To find a common base in society characterized by strong moral pluralism, one needs to seek the foundation of a normative principle able to avoid the relativism - the value of life and the dignity of human person. Proposing an ethical normative scheme inspired a kantian tradition, interpreted in the light of a personalist perspective, the author claims that the adequate system of reference to hold a for ethical committees and, in general, able to be a base criterion of a deliberative practice common shared bioethics, can be found in the concept of "human dignity". This reference limits a minimal ethical nucleus, whose function is essentially to draw a line that limits the reciprocally inviolable space, and find expression through the respect for the humanity in the person as an end. Considering the more or less explicit pressure to which ethical committees are exposed, a moral foundation is necessary to interpret the exigencies of human dignity in front of the changes of human act.
