“…Ahora el asunto es "ocupación de sí", "sentirse preocupado por sí", no de la verdad ni la sabiduría, sino de cuidar de sí para alcanzar la perfección del alma. La ocupación de sí compromete el cultivo del cuerpo, el ponerse en contacto consigo mismo, el prepararse para la vida adulta y para la muerte, especie de vigilancia médica permanente o una suerte de ser médico de sí mismo para curar las afecciones del alma, el permanecer silencioso y atento a escuchar, una anachoresis o retiro espiritual en sí mismo, no olvidar que el respeto a uno mismo significa respeto a los otros, hacerse cargo de uno mismo que conlleva hacrse cargo del prójimo (33,34).…”

Resumen: La bioética surgió hace pocos años, lo que no ha favorecido los intentos por desarrollar una bioética sensible al problema de género. Lo que está en juego es la posibilidad y urgencia de responder a tres problemas relacionados entre sí: fundamentos y conceptos básicos de la identidad de género; el estado de las contribuciones propuestas por la bioética para delimitar dos niveles diferentes, pero interconectados, de los dilemas morales: el nivel femenino y el nivel masculino; y finalmente esbozar un enfoque general antropológicamente basado destinado a una bioética sensible a los aspectos femeninos.Palabras clave: género, bioética, identidad femenina, subjetividad, cuidados paliativos Gender-sensitive bioetichs in medicine: basics and challenges Abstract: The emerging character of bioethics did not encourage the attempts to develop a gender-sensitive bioethics. What is at stake is the possibility and urgency of answering three interrelated questions: fundamentals and basic concepts of gender identity, the state of the contributions offered by bioethics of delimiting two different but interconected leves of moral dilemmas: the feminine level and the masculine level, and to sketch an anthropological based general approach to a feminine-sensitive bioethics.Key words: gender, bioethics, feminine identity, subjectivity, palliative care Bioética de gênero na medicina: fundamentos e desafiosResumo: A Bioética surgiu há poucos anos atrás, o que não tem favorecido as tentativas de desenvolver uma bioética sensível ao problema de gênero.

“…So, certain behaviours and attributes are normalised through the test but this involves the subject partaking actively in these strategies. It is an example of a form of self-government which is crucial to advanced liberal rule (Foucault 1993;Dean 1999;Rose 1993).…”

“…Frost (2005: 19) raises this matter when he argues that interorganizational networks may be "formed as practices that can 'see everything', 'know everything' and 'do anything' , and thus they produce a 'holistic power' to discipline and control every aspect of welfare recipients' lives," particularly in the case of documentation and information sharing. In this contribution, we theorize this issue inspired by Foucault's (1975Foucault's ( , 1993Foucault's ( , 2001 notions of the panopticon and pastoral power. In the article, this tension between support and control serves as an analytical framework to analyse our empirical data.…”

In this article, we discuss how the flow of private information about children and families in poverty situations is managed in interorganizational networks that aim to combat child poverty. Although practices for sharing information and documentation between child and family social work services are highly encouraged and recommended to create supportive features for parents and children, this development often results in undesirable forms of governmentality. Interorganizational networking also creates controlling side effects because the exchange of information in networks of child and family services may wield a holistic power over families. We theorize this issue by using the Foucauldian concepts of the panopticon and pastoral power, which allows us to grapple with the major tension between support and control in the information‐ and documentation‐sharing practices of social workers. A critical analysis of our empirical data reveals four central fields of tension in which social workers and their organizations must position themselves: (a) craving control and handling uncertainty, (b) using and misusing private information and trust, (c) constructing families as subjects and objects of intervention, and (d) including and excluding families.
