englischJustice issues in the healthcare sector are gaining increased urgency in the light of rising medical costs, an ageing society as well as the tides of migration that have been increasing recently. How can we allocate scarce medical resources as justly as possible, and what role do traditional concepts of justice play in this context? Who should be responsible for that? How can decisions regarding the allocation be ethically justified?

The contributions to this volume explore these and similar questions from the perspectives of medicine, health economics and ethics, and provide concrete insights into various fields of medical practice. It becomes apparent that the problem of scarce resources cannot be solved by rationalisation measures alone in the future. We must therefore think in the broadest terms about not only the ‘ethics of waste avoidance’, but also the ‘ethics of rationing’.
