In this article, we present results from a literature review of intrinsic, instrumental, and relational values of nature conducted for the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services, as part of the Methodological Assessment of the Diverse Values and Valuations of Nature. We identify the most frequently recurring meanings in the heterogeneous use of different value types and their association with worldviews and other key concepts. From frequent uses, we determine a core meaning for each value type, which is sufficiently inclusive to serve as an umbrella over different understandings in the literature and specific enough to help highlight its difference from the other types of values. Finally, we discuss convergences, overlapping areas, and fuzzy boundaries between different value types to facilitate dialogue, reduce misunderstandings, and improve the methods for valuation of nature's contributions to people, including ecosystem services, to inform policy and direct future research.

“…The content presented in Table 1 helps to understand the scope of the principles' terminology. However, Hattingh 10 points out three conceptual aspects that may indicate imprecision: several definitions involving the terms "environment" and "biodiversity", which may represent "everything"; impossibility of defining "environment" and "biodiversity" in a scientifically objective way; and change in the range of the "biodiversity" concept, which currently presents a more holistic view of biology.…”

“…Protection could be thought of using two different perspectives: intrinsic value (per se) and instrumental value (based on human interests) 10 . To better solve current impacts, it is questioned whether humanity is at the center of the biosphere, being the most important component, and whether the concerns are with the survival of the species or the environment 4 .…”

“…It is important to remember the trap of worrying only about nature, regardless of human interests 10 , because biocentric focus on wilderness worship, as well as solutions focused on the benefits brought only to humankind, are inadequate for the outline of environmental problems 17 . The ecocentric perspective, according to Junges 17 , is the most adequate to think about and discuss the current environmental crisis, since it assumes the way nature works.…”

“…Thus, the proposed principles for environmental health ethics (respect for human rights, utility, justice, animal welfare, administration, sustainability and precaution) could be translated into the following ecological virtues 61 : compassion, inclusiveness, cooperation, justice, respect for nature, prudence and wisdom. However, they should not be confined to professional action alone, but should encompass the conduct of every human being, since everyone is capable of doing so 10 .…”

Resumo Trata-se de estudo reflexivo acerca dos artigos 16 e 17 da Declaração Universal sobre Bioética e Direitos Humanos, sobre proteção das gerações futuras, do meio ambiente, da biosfera e da biodiversidade. Por serem temas constantemente analisados, é necessário ter visão crítica para aprimorar seus efeitos práticos, muitas vezes deixados de lado em discussões que acentuam apartações sociais. Realizou-se busca etimológica dos termos constituintes dos princípios para favorecer sua conexão e repensar seu conteúdo, associando-os com questões atuais. Propôs-se também reinterpretar a declaração, tendo o meio ambiente como pano de fundo. Ambos não são meros princípios na declaração e sem eles seria improvável atingir plenamente os demais, uma vez que os interligam e asseguram vida equilibrada para gerações atuais e futuras, dependendo do fazer humano.

The article analyses the foundations and principles of global bioethics in the European ethical, legal and philosophical contexts. An analysis of European bioethics shows that there are at least three modern models of European bioethics: bioethics as metaethics; bioethics as biolaw; bioethics as applied biomedical ethics. European bioethics originates in the global bioethics of V.R. Potter and F. Jahr, and encompasses not only moral issues of medicine and public health, but also global environmental and social problems. In this context, the convergence of the natural and the human is seen as a rehabilitation of practical philosophy, a further study and development of the principles of practical reason, understood by analogy with the objective laws of nature. The study of constitutions, legislative and legal regulations of European countries has revealed a variety of bioethical principles in the field of biomedicine. However, at the level of legislation in biomedicine, there is a certain influence of the American model of bioethics, biomedical ethics, which is manifested in the principlism methodology and the weak connection between medical and environmental issues. Global bioethics in the European context is characterized by an intensification of bioethical reflection, social relationships and legislative activity in biomedicine within pan-European structures, such as the European Council and the European Union. The defining feature of global bioethics as a phenomenon of European culture and ethos is that its principles can be “activated” only as a semantic and logical integrity. Bioethical principles serve as a kind of harmonising factor of European biopolitics.
