ABSTRACT
Pro-euthanasia arguments fall into two broad camps: those that argue for the normativity of personal or subjective features of a patient – i.e., arguments from autonomy; and those that argue for the normativity of objective features – such as the avoidance of unnecessary suffering. As in the previous chapters, the argument is that the typical justifications for the permissibility of euthanasia do not exceed a threshold of justification required to justify acting on such a judgment.
