title: [Globalization and bioethics in health resources].
abstract: Globalization is the term used to explain the exchange of goods and services around the globe. Economy, finances, technology, and information are diversified and spread all throughout the world at present. However, it is still being debated whether the global economic paradigm can be applied under considerations of justice and equity for healthcare systems or in the budget for research administration. This issue has become decisive, especially in countries where adequate development remains a pending public endeavor.
