| description | This essay’s intend is to dust off some representative concepts of moral theology and present them to the new bioethics discipline as a precious instrument of discernment and application in the clinical setting, but not only that. I am referring to the concept of proportionality or disproportionality as an instrument to reach decisions in confictive decisions. In the great current debates generated at the heart of bioethics, there have been several diffculties in the bioethics committees, hospitals’ ethics committees or care committees, when debating and agreeing upon what decision to make in face of a specifc clinical picture. In virtue of that, I believe it is necessary to deepen the study and propose contributions to the subject using insights from moral theology. It is important to keep in mind that in reality, bioethics has borrowed several structures and concepts not only from moral theology, but also anthropology, law, and catholic ethics. The intention, therefore, is to refer exclusively to some writings from Pius’ XII Pontifcal Magisterium and their contributions to moral theology at the time. After that, I will supplement this work with the contribution from the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith in the magisterial document “Iurat et bona”, to fnally try to apply the concept of proportionality to the possible clinical decisions. |

El presente ensayo pretende desempolvar algunos conceptos representativos de la teología moral y presentarlos a la nueva disciplina bioética como un instrumento precioso de discernimiento y aplicación en el ambiente clínico, pero no solo. Me refiero al concepto de proporcionalidad o desproporcionalidad como instrumento para tomar decisiones en situaciones conflictivas. En los grandes debates actuales que se ha generado en el seno de la bioética, se han ido presenciando muchas dificultades en los Comités de bioética, Comités éticos hospitalarios o Comités asistenciales, al momento de debatir y consensuar sobre qué decisión tomar de frente a un determinado cuadro clínico. En tal virtud, creo necesario estudiar con mayor profundidad y proponer algunos aportes que podamos hacer desde la reflexión de la teología moral. Lo que pretendo, por tanto, es referirme exclusivamente a algunos escritos del magisterio pontificio de Pio XII y sus aportaciones a la teología moral de entonces. Luego complementaré este estudio con el aporte de la Congregación para la Doctrina de la Fe en el documento magisterial “Iurat et bona”, para finalmente tentar aplicar el concepto de proporcionalidad en las decisiones clínicas posibles.
