  • All Donations Should Not Be Treated Equally: A Response to Jeffrey Kahn's Commentary.Lainie Friedman Ross - 2002 - Journal of Law, Medicine and Ethics 30 (3):448-451.
    Jeffrey Kahn and I agree that organ donation by altruistic strangers is acceptable, and that the organ procured this way ought to be allocated equitably. Our agreement in principle, however, is challenged in the details of its application. Specifically, I want to focus on three issues raised by Kahn that merit further discussion: whether relationships matter; how kidneys should be allocated; and the ethical acceptability of the expanded donor pool.

  • Self-interest, self-abnegation and self-esteem: towards a new moral economy of non-directed kidney donation.S. R. Roff - 2007 - Journal of Medical Ethics 33 (8):437-441.
    As of September 2006, non-directed donation of kidneys and other tissues and organs is permitted in the UK under the new Human Tissue Acts. At the same time as making provision for psychiatric and clinical assessment of so-called “altruistic” donations to complete strangers, the Acts intensify assessments required for familial, genetically related donations, which will now require the same level as genetically unrelated but “emotionally” connected donations by locally based independent assessors reporting to the newly constituted Human Tissue Authority. But (...)

  • Making the Most of Strangers' Altruism.Jeffrey Kahn - 2002 - Journal of Law, Medicine and Ethics 30 (3):446-447.
    Lainie Ross, in her article in this issue, criticizes on ethical grounds a number of factors in the University of Minnesota program that allows unrelated strangers to donate kidneys for transplant. I have to admit that when the transplant center at the University proposed allowing the practice of what came to be called nondirected donation, I was skeptical about a number of the same issues that trouble Dr. Ross. But as my colleagues and I examined and discussed the ethics of (...)
