Regulation Analysis And Civil Law Protection Of Genetic Privacy

Since the rapid developments of worldwide human genome research during recent decades, genetic privacy has being a new law issue. At the moment, genetic privacy and non-discrimination problem is getting a popular attention focused by several countries, in order to put emphasis on such hot issue, many countries now take measures to make legislation. Now, China's gene technique is developing much fast. Although there is rare genetic privacy crimes to be committed, because of advanced gene technique, people are more and more threatened by genetic privacy. For that sense, investigators should speed up gene law research so as to keep pace with the gene technology development.This paper will try to use standards analysis and present true cases of conflicts in various social fields to arrive at a viewpoint that genetic privacy should be established as an independent human right.Personally speaking, Civil Law has provided a chance with gene privacy's development, we should give birth to genetic privacy's definition into Charpter: personality right in Civil Law; and to set up an explicit series of genetic privacy protections, including common requisites in constitution of crime and responsibilities to be bore. However, with the fast development of gene technology, only a sole protection cannot meet different satisfactions in such a complex society and business. Consequently, a conclusion is that an exclusive genetic privacy law seems to be necessary outcome of gene technique development.
