Adviser: Howard Brody.

Thesis (M.A.)--Michigan State University, 1998.

The family's role in medical decision making has become a subject of spirited debate in bioethics. Using tools of anthropology and philosophy, I argue for the existence of a medical decision model in Japan best described as family autonomy, and develop a theoretical framework for its implementation. In Chapter One, I examine the family's role in medical decision making in Japan based on religio-philosophical, social, and cultural considerations. I present a framework for clinicians to accommodate family decision making in the North American context. In Chapter Two, I examine the question of whether family autonomy is a morally viable paradigm that has utility for modern bioethics. I propose seven precepts for implementing and limiting family autonomy. While further inquiry about the moral relevance and the family's role in medical decision making is needed, I contend that acknowledgment and utilization of family autonomy can improve the quality of medical decision making.
