| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I have written and published multiple journal articles and book chapters regarding the possible demerits of the legalization of passive euthanasia. Plausibility of the claim that vulnerable populations needs to bear the risks of being pressured to accept death when passive euthanasia becomes legalized, was investigated. Also, plausibility of the idea that a person's existence has intrinsic value so that it can be wrong to destroy a person's life even when s/he both wants to die and has no interest in stay alive, was explored.
