PROJECT SETTLED\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Project title:\u00a0Activity of pharmaceutical industry – ethical challenges and new biopolitics<\/strong><\/span>
\nPrincipal investigator: d<\/strong>r Emilia Kaczmarek<\/strong>
\nFinancing: National Science Centre,\u00a0Preludium\u00a09
\nProject Period: 2016-2018
\nProject no.\u00a02015\/17\/N\/HS1\/02122<\/p>\n

Project goals:\u00a0<\/strong>The main objective of the project is to demonstrate the biopolitical nature of the activity of pharmaceutical industry and to evaluate this activity from the point of view of bioethics. Research on particular strategies of the pharmaceutical industry will be divided into three parts. In the first part, the different forms of pharmaceutical lobbying will be characterized. In the second part, the matter of analysis will be the pharma marketing and the third part will be devoted to the commercialization of knowledge in the drug industry. The objective of the proposed project is to gain knowledge about the nature of the various strategies of the pharmaceutical industry, through deep analysis of such concepts as medicalization of life (in the context of pharmaceutical marketing and, in particular, in the context of so called disease branding\/disease mongering) or commercialization of knowledge (inter alia in the context of control over the results of clinical trials sponsored by the pharmaceutical industry). Particular stages of the project will be devoted to different research questions, such as, for example: which of the existing concept of biopolitics gives the best tools for understanding the drug industry, what role plays lobbying in the democracy or what social consequences entail selected strategies of advertising drugs?<\/p>\n
