Проблемы терминологии в биоправе
Background. In connection with the advancing biotechnologies, bioethics has been developing extremely actively in recent years. However, bioethics does not manage to effectively regulate various relations included in this sphere, and therefore, there is a need to develop biolaw. As a result, problems have arisen related not only to the theoretical and legal justification of the new legal concept, the definition of principles and substantive principles of regulation, but also very acute issues related to terminology, in connection with which this study is devoted to defining the main problems of terminology in biolaw, their characteristics, analyzing and proposing possible solutions, including in the context of the existing theoretical and legal discourse in terms of terminology studies. Materials and methods. The study is implemented on the basis of an analysis of the international documents, regulatory legal acts, provisions of bioethics and biolaw, as well as the foundations of the theory of state and law. The methodology draws on the established tools of the general theory of state and law, as well as specific legal sciences. The author adheres to the principle of pluralism, the dialectical method of cognition, which is directly related to the principle of development, is used to study the problems. The study is conducted using the general scientific and specific scientific methods, scientific methods of legal science (formal legal analysis in the context of various modifications of legal positivism), textual approach, which through hermeneutics allows identifying relevant legal ideas, formulating existing doctrinal, normative and law-enforcement problems, as well as comparative legal method. Results. The article deals with the problems of terminology in biolaw as a new, emerging sphere of legal regulation. The examples of terminological problems are characterized and analyzed from the viewpoint of naming the relevant legal concept, considering somatic (personal) rights as a key category of biolaw, exploring the formation of concepts in certain areas. A theoretical and legal analysis of the existing problems is carried out and the possible solutions are proposed. Conclusions. The study finds that there are serious problems in terminology of biolaw, starting with the name of this area of legal regulation, which creates the need for detailed elaboration of terminology in this area. Thus, special attention should be paid to unifying, harmonizing and overcoming gaps in legal regulation. In addition, the author considers it expedient to develop and publish a handbook based on the doctrinal elaboration of the relevant concepts, which can form a basis for further, including law-making, activity
