摘要：This paper aims to contribute to a deeper reflection on intercultural conflicts within the scope of bioethics, and to point out the problem of using human rights as a theoretical normative mediator of the conflicts in bioethics that bear elements of interculturalism. The methodological steps adopted in this inquiry were the analysis of the concept of intercultural conflict in bioethics, from the perception developed by Colectivo Amani; the study of human rights as tools of the culture of human beings, based on Bauman's theories; and the investigation of the tools that human rights offer so as to solve intercultural conflicts in bioethics. I conclude that intercultural bioethics must incorporate in its prescriptive and descriptive tasks, norms and institutions of human rights that ensure the participation and social integration of individuals from communities that are in cultural conflict. Such measures will act as instruments for the solution of intercultural conflicts.
