Genetic exceptionalism & legislative pragmatism
Hastings Center Report 35 (4):27-33 (2005)
Abstract
: Can passing antidiscrimination laws ever be a bad idea? Yes, if broad policy reform is abandoned in favor of genetic-specific legislation. But in spite of its serious flaws, both in concept and in practice, genetic-specific legislation is sometimes worth passing anyway—sometimes a bad idea is reasonableMy notes
