商品描述
This book provides an overview of discrimination and structural injustice in assisted dying. It differentiates between direct and indirect discrimination at both the individual and organizational levels, and it pays particular attention to indirect discrimination due to structural factors that have been systemically overlooked. Whereas bioethics literature has traditionally engaged with discrimination on the basis of disability or exclusionary legal barriers, comparatively little attention has been devoted to the cases of individuals who are not legally excluded from access, but are effectively unable to access assisted suicide for other reasons, such as being inhabitants of rural areas with no reasonable access, being prisoners, or, in certain cases, low-income individuals. A conceptual mapping of this kind provides a finer understanding of the overall architecture of the ethical debate surrounding assisted dying and clarifies its moral wrongs. Finally, this book shows the inherent political dimension of assisted dying, where the ethics of assisted dying are not only about principles of autonomy and liberty in death and dying, but also about social justice and equality. The book offers a robust normative claim ensuring fair and equal opportunity of access to assisted dying. This book is of interest to philosophers, policymakers, public health experts, and political scientists interested in the issue of discrimination in the context of assisted dying.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書提供了關於輔助死亡中的歧視與結構性不公的概述。它區分了個人層面和組織層面的直接與間接歧視，並特別關注因結構性因素而被系統性忽視的間接歧視。儘管生物倫理學文獻傳統上關注基於殘疾或排他性法律障礙的歧視，但對於那些在法律上並未被排除但因其他原因實際上無法獲得輔助自殺的個體（例如，居住在無合理通達的農村地區的居民、囚犯，或在某些情況下，低收入個體）卻相對少有關注。這種概念性映射提供了對輔助死亡倫理辯論整體架構的更細緻理解，並澄清了其道德錯誤。最後，本書展示了輔助死亡固有的政治維度，輔助死亡的倫理不僅關乎死亡與臨終自主權和自由的原則，還涉及社會正義和平等。本書提出了一個強有力的規範主張，以確保公平和平等的輔助死亡機會。本書對於哲學家、政策制定者、公共衛生專家以及對輔助死亡背景下的歧視問題感興趣的政治科學家具有吸引力。
