Sažetak
In the 1970s, the American oncologist Van Rensselaer Potter launched throughout the world his message on the necessity of the emergence of a new science, bioethics, meant to bridge over the gap between natural and humanistic sciences and to promote a new approach toward biomedical technology and practice. Some 15-20 years after, the new discipline was gradually introduced to the universities of South-East Europe as well. Potter has been considered the pioneer in the field of bioethics, although eventually the work of the German philosopher Fritz Jahr was re-discovered, suggesting that the notion of Bio-Ethik had been known in Europe at least half a century before Potter's work. The present paper has been trying to trace the major routes of the spreading of principal bioethical ideas through South-East Europe, paying more attention to the work and schools emerged at the universities of Rijeka and Zagreb in Croatia.
