This book provides a current analysis of the legal and ethical challenges in preparing for and responding to chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosive (CBRNE) crises. From past events like the Chernobyl nuclear incident in Russia or the Bhopal chemical calamity in India, to the more recent tsunami and nuclear accident in Japan or the Ebola crisis in Africa, and with the on-going threat of bioterrorism, the need to be ready to respond to CBRNE crises is uncontroversial. What is controversial is whether we are on a path that adequately prepares us for the next event. The ethical and legal scholars in this volume hold that much work remains to be done and offer this book to stimulate further reflection and dialogue around CBRNE crises. This is an indispensable book for both students and scholars of bioethics, international law, public health, as well as for regulators and administrators developing policy and legislation related to public health planning and emergency responses.
Dónal O'Mathúna has degrees in pharmacy and bioethics. He is Associate Professor in the School of Nursing and Human Sciences at Dublin City University in Ireland and the College of Nursing at The Ohio State University in the USA. He is widely published in bioethics and has led an EU-funded network examining the developing field of disaster bioethics. As Chair of this COST Action on disaster bioethics, he has helped to bring together a network of scholars, humanitarian organisations, and international organisations to identify, examine and address ethical issues in disasters. This has led to publications and funded research projects on the ethical challenges arising with disasters of both natural and human origins. This work has led to his involvement in expert committees developing ethics guidelines for disasters, including those of the World Health Organization (WHO), the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), andothers. He has a particular interest in how nonideal moral theory can be applied in disasters, on the importance of addressing vulnerability in disasters, and the place of research ethics in disasters. He has a long-standing interest in research ethics more generally, having chaired his university's research ethics committee for a number of years.
