KRŠÍKOVÁ, Hana

The legal aspects are discussed with respect to human rights, to the legislative system of the European countries that legalized euthanasia, and to the potential dangers connected with the legalization of mercy killing. The chapters considering ethical aspects draw on essential ethical values and their application in the connection with euthanasia. A particular ethical theory, utilitarianism, is briefly described, and attention i also given to the current development of the social consciousness from the moral concern to the emphasis on efficiency. The discussion of both legal and ethical aspects involves the opinions of the supporters as well as the opponents of euthanasia. In the conclusion the thesis refers to the possible conflict between the ethical and legal norms, which can be initiated by the legalization of euthanasia.
