“…The historical context of African Americans' experience within the dominant medical culture in the United States is the backdrop against which any discussion of trust must take place. The Tuskegee syphilis study (Francis 2001) and segregated hospitals are in the historic memory of many older African Americans and are shared amongst the wider community Similar disparities exist for those wishing to access palliative and end-of-life care (Koffman & Higginson 2001). Ultimately, until inequities in access and quality of care are eliminated or at least greatly reduced, simply encouraging people from BAME to be more 'trusting' of recommendations provided by healthcare professionals from principally the United States or European white majority populations is ultimately doomed to failure.…”

“…It is hard not to associate that preoccupation of the genre with contemporary issues of bioethics: the ethical limits of medicine, surgery and genetic manipulations have been a controversial subject for decades (Francis, 2001;Robert & Baylis, 2003;Kamm, 2005). It is therefore not surprising to find them reflected in steampunk, which voices contemporary concerns through the use of 19 th -century figures.…”

“…Furthermore, the notion of a "greater good" exists in close parallel to the trope of the evil scientist looking for personal power. The idea that the ultimate betterment of society justifies any transgression on the part of the doctor may have been largely contested in official discourses, but it has never ceased to be a source of ethical uneasiness-especially since unethical practices in medicine and medical research have endured long past the 19 th century (Francis, 2001)-a fact that is often reflected in steampunk narratives. But the more specific question asked by steampunk does not really concern the dialectics between a hypothetical greater good, individual human rights and destructive personal ambition, as such questions should be asked before progress takes place.…”

“…Die Wahlmöglichkeiten eines nicht-zahlenden Patienten sind überhaupt sehr eingeschränkt. Das Konzept der informierten Einwilligung (informed consent) ist unzureichend bekannt und beachtet; das Problem war vor vielen Jahren auch im Westen bekannt [27,28]. Hier lässt es sich nicht vermeiden, einige Worte über die ethnisch-geographische Seite der medizinischen Forschung zu sagen.…”

“…Außerdem kooperieren viele Ärzte in staatlichen Polikliniken mit dem privaten Sektor; ein typisches Beispiel sind die mit oder ohne ärztliche Anweisung vorgeschriebenen und von Patienten bezahlte Magnetresonanz-und Computeromographien oft ohne ausreichende Indikationen. Eine zunehmende Rolle ökonomischer Faktoren beim Treffen klinischer Entscheidungen unterminiert allmählich das Vertrauen der Patienten zu Ärzten und der Medizin: ein Vorgang, der angeblich nicht nur in der ehemaligen SU zu verzeichnen ist [28]. Die Qualität der Diagnostik und Behandlung im staatlichen und dem privaten Sektor und zwischen einzelnen Institutionen wird nicht verglichen, regelmäßige und effektive Kontrollen der Krankenhäuser und anderer Einrichtungen durch die Behörden erfolgen meines Wissens auch nicht.…”
