Abstract Modern society is a society accustomed to a life of prosperity and develop-ment. This causes people, at the very thought of constant pain (both mentaland physical), to look for a solution that can shorten it. This state of affairs is in-fluenced by utilitarianism (which proclaims that there is no point in suffering)which is popular in highly developed societies. According to the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Funda-mental Freedoms, every human being is free and therefore decides for him-self/herself about his/her own life (including how to end it), but accordingto the same document, life is a legal good protected by law. Proponents of eu-thanasia and assisted suicide emphasise that a sick person can die with dig-nity thanks to a euthanasia procedure. They emphasise that human dignityis an overriding value protected by law. Opponents of euthanasia, on the oth-er hand, argue that human life should not be valued. No one can decide whichlife can continue and which should be terminated.The institution that tries to settle the dispute between supporters and op-ponents of euthanasia is the European Court of Human Rights. Accordingto the Court, the freedom to allow legal euthanasia must have a limit. This limitis Article 2 of the Convention and the control exercised by the ECtHR. Each per-son’s case is different and subject to individual examination.
AbstractList Współczesne społeczeństwo to społeczeństwo przyzwyczajone do życia w dobrobycie i rozwoju. Powoduje to, że ludzie na samą myśl o nieustannym bólu (zarówno psychicznym, jak i fizycznym) szukają rozwiązania, które może ten ból zakończyć. Na ten stan rzeczy ma wpływ utylitaryzm (głoszący, iż nie ma żadnego sensu w cierpieniu), który jest popularny w wysoko rozwiniętych społeczeństwach. Według Konwencji o ochronie praw człowieka i podstawowych wolności każdy człowiek jest wolny, a zatem sam decyduje o swoim życiu (w tym o sposobie jego zakończenia), ale zgodnie z tym samym dokumentem życie jest dobrem prawnym chronionym przez prawo. Zwolennicy eutanazji oraz wspomaganego samobójstwa podkreślają, że osoba chora dzięki zabiegowi eutanatycznemu może umrzeć z godnością. Podkreślają, iż godność człowieka jest nadrzędną wartością chronioną przez prawo. Przeciwnicy eutanazji natomiast twierdzą, że życie ludzkie nie powinno być wartościowane. Nikt nie może decydować o tym, które życie może trwać dalej, a które należy zakończyć. Instytucją, która próbuje rozstrzygnąć spór między zwolennikami eutanazji a jej przeciwnikami, jest Europejski Trybunał Praw Człowieka. Zgodnie ze zdaniem Trybunału swoboda w kwestii dopuszczalności legalnej eutanazji musi mieć granicę. Granicę tę stanowi art. 2 Konwencji i kontrola sprawowana przez ETPCz. Przypadek każdego człowieka jest inny i podlega indywidualnemu badaniu. Modern society is a society accustomed to a life of prosperity and development. This causes people, at the very thought of constant pain (both mental and physical), to look for a solution that can shorten it. This state of affairs is influenced by utilitarianism (which proclaims that there is no point in suffering) which is popular in highly developed societies. According to the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, every human being is free and therefore decides for himself/herself about his/her own life (including how to end it), but according to the same document, life is a legal good protected by law. Proponents of euthanasia and assisted suicide emphasise that a sick person can die with dignity thanks to a euthanasia procedure. They emphasise that human dignity is an overriding value protected by law. Opponents of euthanasia, on the other hand, argue that human life should not be valued. No one can decide which life can continue and which should be terminated. The institution that tries to settle the dispute between supporters and opponents of euthanasia is the European Court of Human Rights. According to the Court, the freedom to allow legal euthanasia must have a limit. This limit is Article 2 of the Convention and the control exercised by the ECtHR. Each per son’s case is different and subject to individual examination.
