Ethical Justifications For Voluntary Active Euthanasia, Bernadette Spina Jan 1998

Ethical Justifications For Voluntary Active Euthanasia, Bernadette Spina

Richmond Journal of Law and the Public Interest

The topic of euthanasia gives rise to a host of ethical questions including those regarding the quality of life, beneficence, and the responsibilities of physicians toward their patients. While there are many kinds of cases in which euthanasia may be considered, such as those involving severely handicapped newborns and patients with debilitating but not fatal conditions, this paper focuses on the situation of late-state terminally ill patients who are suffering and want active euthanasia as an option for ending their pain. This paper explains why, under such circumstances, voluntary active euthanasia may be ethically justified. Active and passive euthanasia are …


Nqsi: Quality Schools Come From Quality People, Anita O. Poston, Thomas B. Lockamy, Gary L. Ruegsegger Jan 1998

Nqsi: Quality Schools Come From Quality People, Anita O. Poston, Thomas B. Lockamy, Gary L. Ruegsegger

Richmond Journal of Law and the Public Interest

Since the time of the now fabled one room schoolhouse, American schools have undergone tremendous change socially, structurally, and instructionally. Our public schools are under the microscope like never before. Charter schools and tuition vouchers circle above public education like vultures. New special education regulations loom menacingly on the horizon. Prophets of doom are on every street comer and in every Internet chat room. The Virginia General Assembly has mandated higher standards and tougher discipline. Innumerable publications document both technology's explosion and the American family's implosion. Against this seemingly foreboding backdrop, a school district in Southeastern Virginia researched, designed, and …

A Resource Theory Of The Criminal Law: Exploring When It Matters, Richard O. Lempert Jan 1998

A Resource Theory Of The Criminal Law: Exploring When It Matters, Richard O. Lempert

Book Chapters

This paper might look very different had I been asked a sensible question. Instead, I was told that the focus of the program for which this paper was originally prepared was "Does law matter?" and that my particular assignment was to discuss the question of whether the criminal law mattered. Of course criminal law matters. One hardly need be a committed functionalist to conclude from the dense net of criminal laws that envelop modern societies that criminal law must matter or else we would not have so much of it or, conversely, because we have so much of it, it …
