Euthanasia
Derived from the Greek “Eu Thanatos” the term literally means good death, however, for the purpose of analysis it becomes necessary to define the term further into both passive and active Euthanasia. Passive Euthanasia concerns the intentional withholding of treatment, which will then result in the patient’s death. Here, death is deemed to be a result of the patient’s medical condition. Active Euthanasia is however, a decidedly different matter. In this instance a positive human act instigating or accelerating death is required and it further be subdivided into three distinct categories, namely “in accordance with the wishes of the patient (voluntary Euthanasia), without consent (non-voluntary Euthanasia) or where is patient is incapable of consenting (involuntary Euthanasia).” To compound this, there is finally the issue of the assisted suicide. In this instance suicide is aided by an individual for example a doctor in the prescription of medication, the purpose of which is to cause the death of the patient. Within both the United Kingdom and Irish jurisdiction the latter two are both deemed to be criminal offences.
