Abstract

|
A theory of social contract for risk in medical research is tried. Though researchers have long understood the nature of risk and responded in many ways, there are still unsolved problems, such as the setting the limit of autonomy, allowing participation of healthy subjects for non-beneficial intervention, and preventing possible harming of socially-deprived people. For building social contract, two conceptions of risk were identified: quantitative risk and social risk. Then concept of harm and benefit, and social contract were discussed. Three principles of risk social contract were identified and suggestion for implementation were discussed.
