Biurokratyzacja śmierci. Kilka uwag prawno-etycznych w pryzmacie belgijskiej ustawy eutanatycznej
Abstract
Debate oscillating around the euthanasia turns out to be not only a purely theoretical problem; it is also a pressing legal, moral and social issue. It concerns the most crucial issues of human existence and its boundaries. Such problems require a thorough analysis of the legislation, what their status is, supported by moral and ethical arguments. The provisions of the Belgian amendment to the Euthanasia Act turn out to be fragile and inconsistent. Leaning on an erroneous interpretation of human rights - an abstractly perceived notion of autonomy, under any circumstances do they contribute to the care of a weaker person, and to the unraveling the issue of dying with dignity.
