The primary objective of this study is to diagnose the causes of abortion decision-making by the participants of this forum. Verbalized positioned determinants of abortion in the context of considerations of a moral (right to life, consequentialism and deontological ethics). Assumptions consequentialism and deontological ethics – as an ethical context for women's right to carry out abortions – were assigned to two, opposed in public discourse in Poland standpoints: the defenders of life – pro-life groups representing the deontological approach to the issue of abortion, and the defenders of free pro-choice groups (consequentialism). After this analysis we can say that in public discourse on the issue of abortion in the analyzed online forum made it clear in the context of ethical considerations, including the nature of both topics consequential and deontological, and above all stressed the basic idea of ethics of rights – the question of the right of the unborn child to life and the scope of this right.

Those leading trends, concerning moral responsibility, consist of complex processes of institutionalisation on the one hand, and of processes of instrumentalistion on the other. From general reflection on the dimensions and descriptions of responsibility the writer steps to the analysis of two main fields of social activity, where moral responsibility has significant meaning, e.g. the analysis of responsibility in economic and political activity. Moral responsibility and expected high ethical competences of individuals, acting in the fields of business or politics, are still tested, especially in the crucial relation between liberty and responsibility. The paper also mentions the problem of asymmetry between expectations towards responsible behaviour performed by the others and the lack of responsibility for speech and actions performed. Moreover, multiplicative character of contemporary teleinforamative means, supported by exercise of advanced techniques of influence onto the others makes the diagnosis stated by the writer significant.

In compliance with the thesis of this paper, the latter two types of morality should be significantly connected with irrational consumer behaviours – demonstrative consumption, compensative consumption and shopaholism. As our research conducted throughout Poland in August 2010 demonstrated, approximately 1/5 of Poles aged 15 and more are included in the segments of hedonisticmaterialistic morality and of morality of the resigned. As expected, the highest percentage of compensative shoppers was found in the segment of hedonistic materialists – 1/3 of them buy compensatively, whereas 1/3 of hedonistic materialists buying compensatively demonstrate inclinations to shopaholism. The idealists constitute the second most susceptible to compensation segment. Moreover, this segment leads as well in terms of demonstrative consumer behaviours.

The international perspective in this discussion plays an important role in this process, because dilemmas and expectations towards it are becoming more and more important and decisions which are taken have international range. The discussion which is going to fulfill these expectations was started by partners of 6th Framework Programme BIONET on Ethical Covernance of Biological and Biomedical Research: Chinese – European Co-operation. A wider perspective on this issue and specific standpoints of representatives from scientific circles from China and Europe presented in this article are just a part of a multinational debate on problems and dilemmas present in planning, managing and implementing biomedical and biological research. However opinions and statements presented here can prove the importance of these problems and their inevitability. While debating on challenges which the scientific circle has to face, both European and Chinese partners were trying to formulate standards in realization of projects and biomedical scientific research. It was widely discussed which conditions of planning, managing, implementing and conducting research should be fulfilled, in order that these scientific processes, which are realized within national and international range, would be conducted more effectively, safely and with respect for good standards of science and ethics.
