The Clinical Ethics Consultant: What Role is There for Religious Beliefs?AbstractReligions often operate as comprehensive worldviews, attempting to answer the deepest existential questions that human beings can ask: Who am I?

Inevitably, the clinical ethics consultant will encounter and engage with religiously based ethical systems. In this issue,...

Limits to the Politics of Subjective Rights: Reading Marx After LefortAbstractIn response to critiques of rights as moralistic and depoliticising, a literature on the political nature and contestability of rights has emerged.

Property and the Interests of Things: The Case of the Donative TrustAbstractWithin a liberal, 'law of things' understanding of property, the donative trust is seen as a species of gift. Control over trust property passes from the hands of settlors to beneficiaries, from owners to owners. Trust property, like all other property, is silent and passive, its fate determined by its owners. This article questions this understanding of the trust by showing how beneath the facade of ownership, the trust...
