What does the term “bioethicist” mean? On the one hand, Bioethics is becoming a very well-know discipline in Ethics. On the other hand, we could not talk properly about “bioethicists”. Since their role is weakly defined. This article argues in favor of specialized knowledge in Bioethics. But it claims a fuzzy role for the “experts” in Bioethics, and in applied Ethics. (1) The expert in Moral Philosophy would be more suitable to the limited, moderate role that professionals have to take for granted there. They could be “epistemic competent”, they could not claim the “performative competence” in practical issues, though.(2) Experts from many fields looking for open arguments in these topics would show that “experts in Bioethics” , “bioethicist” are actually inessential for the discipline. (3) Having moral competence, citizens are able of valuing by themselves practical issues.
