Dying with Human Dignity

Valentin Pozaić ; Filozofsko-teološki institut Družbe Isusove u Zagrebu, Zagreb, Hrvatska

Sažetak

Man has never been indifferent facing the fact of death. Today, owing to the contemporary achievements of medical and other sciencies, he submits himself less and less passively to the arrival of death. At the same time he encroaches more and more actively into the course and manner of his own dying. Besides the up till now wellknown right to life, the less knowin right to death, the right to dying with human dignity has been invoked.
The author deals first wiith the manifold reasons and different contents of the requests for the right to death. Then he tries to outline in which sense a human being, and especially a Christian, could claim and achieve the right to death in concordance with his human dignity.
