Sterben dürfen – die Streitschrift eines Arztes Die Würde des Menschen muss auch und gerade bei unheilbar kranken und alten Menschen respektiert und bewahrt bleiben. Viel zu oft allerdings setzen sich Ärzte über den Willen ihrer Patienten hinweg, tun alles, was medizinisch und technisch möglich ist, und tragen so eher zur qualvollen Sterbeverzögerung als zur sinnvollen Lebensverlängerung bei. Aber Lebensverlängerung, so de Ridder, darf nie zum Selbstzweck werden. Ein leidenschaftliches Plädoyer für Selbstbestimmung und Fürsorge am Lebensende. Der medizinische Fortschritt der letzten Jahrzehnte hilft zahllosen Patienten, verschafft Heilung oder zumindest Linderung, rettet und verlängert Leben. Gleichzeitig hat Hochleistungsmedizin, wie sie in unseren Krankenhäusern praktiziert wird, aber auch ihre Schattenseiten. Michael de Ridder, seit über dreißig Jahren an verschiedenen Kliniken in Hamburg und Berlin als Internist, Rettungs- und Intensivmediziner tätig, plädiert dafür, Sterben wieder als Teil des Lebens wahrzunehmen und anzuerkennen. Er richtet sich damit nicht zuletzt an die eigene Zunft. Vielfach verstehen sich Ärzte in einer medizinisch-technischen Krankenhauswelt, in der alles möglich scheint, ausschließlich als Heilende. Was aber, wenn eine Heilung nicht mehr möglich ist? Wenn ein Patient »austherapiert« ist, wie es im Fachjargon heißt? Statt Todkranke um jeden Preis am Leben zu erhalten, müssen Mediziner lernen, in aussichtslosen Situationen ein friedliches Sterben zu ermöglichen. Gerade hier, so de Ridder, sind Ärzte gefragt, als Begleiter, als Fürsorger.

Raimund Pousset gives in this essential a concise account of senicide, the modern form of cultural killing of the elderly. He sheds light on both the history and the current situation of an ancient method. Practiced for millennia almost everywhere in the world, this custom of actively disposing of old 'useless' people or passively putting oneself to death is increasingly being revived today. Senicide is a nameless and silent scandal in our modern, enlightened society. The author wishes to bring this silent death into the focus of a mindful professional public, for the segregation of old age and the avalanche of costs in health care suggest that senicide will continue to grow in sad significance

Wie wollen wir sterben? Noch in diesem Jahr sollen im Deutschen Bundestag Gesetzeswerke verabschiedet werden, die sich mit den rechtlichen Fragen um die »Sterbehilfe« und die Zulässigkeit eines »assistierten Suizids« befassen. Aus unterschiedlichen Blickrichtungen nähert sich der Band dieser Thematik: Rainer Maria Kardinal Woelki behandelt in seinem Beitrag die Würde des Sterbens und ein Sterben in Würde. Der Verfassungsrechtler Christian Hillgruber weist auf, warum den Staat mit Blick auf das Leben eine grundrechtliche Schutzpflicht trifft, die ein Verbot der Beihilfe zum Suizid gebietet. Der Medizinethiker Giovanni Maio zeigt auf, dass sich hinter dem Wunsch nach Suizid und Sterbehilfe letztlich ein Menschenbild verbirgt, das das Alt-, Krank- und Gebrechlichwerden als Schwundstufen des Menschseins betrachtet. Der Mediziner Christoph von Ritter geht der Frage nach, warum Ärzte nicht töten dürfen. Abschließend analysiert der Sozialethiker Manfred Spieker die vier im Deutschen Bundestag diskutierten Gesetzentwürfe zur Sterbehilfe.

What kind of stuff is the world made of? What is the nature or substance of things? These are ontological questions, and they are usually answered with respect to the objects of science. The objects of technoscience tell a different story that concerns the power, promise and potential of things – not what they are but what they can be. Seventeen scholars from history and philosophy of science, epistemology, social anthropology, cultural studies and ethics each explore a research object in its technological setting, ranging from carbon to cardboard, from arctic ice cores to nuclear waste, from wetlands to GMO seeds, from fuel cells to the great Pacific garbage patch. Together they offer fascinating stories and novel analytic concepts, all the while opening up a space for reflecting on the specific character of technoscientific objects. With their promise of sustainable innovation and a technologically transformed future, these objects are highly charged with values and design expectations. By clarifying their mode of existence, we are learning to come to terms more generally with the furniture of the technoscientific world – where, for example, the 'dead matter' of classical physics is becoming the 'smart material' of emerging and converging technologies.

In the twenty-first century the basic questions of ethics are no longer the abstract terms of ethical theory, but the concrete and burning issues related to the influence of life sciences, the impact of a globalized economy, and the consequences of present decisions for the future of humankind. Ethics: The Fundamental Questions of Our Lives analyzes twenty ethical issues that address education and culture, labor and economy, the environment and sustainability, democracy and cosmopolitanism, peace and war, and life and death. Each chapter describes a concrete example showing the relevance of the fundamental ethical question, then provides an explanation of how one can think through possible responses and reactions. Huber emphasizes the connections between personal, professional, and institutional ethics and demonstrates how human relationships lie at the center of our ethical lives. His aim is to articulate a theology of what he calls "responsible freedom" that transcends individualistic self-realization and includes communal obligations.

We examine the concept of medical futility by addressing several questions. Should doctors be attempting treatments that have little likelihood of achieving the goals of medicine? What are the goals of medicine? Can we agree when medical treatment fails to achieve such goals? What should the physician do and not do under such circumstances? Exploring these issues has forced us to revisit the doctor–patient relationship and the relationship of the medical profession to society. Medical futility has both quantitative and qualitative components. We argue that medical futility is the unacceptable likelihood of achieving an effect that the patient has the capacity to appreciate as a benefit. Medicine today has the capacity to achieve a multitude of effects, but none creates a benefit unless the patient has the capacity to appreciate it. In the futility debate wherein some critics have failed or refused to define medical futility, an important area of medicine has been neglected – palliative care – the physician’s obligation to alleviate suffering, enhance wellbeing, and support the dignity of the patient at the end of life. To provide a broader perspective we end with a view from Germany.

2020 Catholic Press Association second place award for English translation edition Is the Christian hope for resurrection still alive or has it become tired? How can we talk about the Resurrection today? Gerhard Lohfink takes up the question of death and resurrection in this new book. He argues against the dazzling array of today's ideas and expectations and seeks his answers in Scripture, the Christian tradition, and human reason. With his characteristically gentle but clear language, he reveals the power of Christian resurrection, showing it is not about events that lie in the distant future but rather occurrences incomprehensively close to us. They were long since begun and they will embrace us fully in our own death..

Dignity is humanity's most prized possession. We experience the loss of dignity as a terrible humiliation: when we lose our dignity we feel deprived of something without which life no longer seems worth living. But what exactly is this trait that we value so highly? In this important new book, distinguished philosopher Peter Bieri looks afresh at the notion of human dignity. In contrast to most traditional views, he argues that dignity is not an innate quality of human beings or a right that we possess by virtue of being human. Rather, dignity is a certain way to lead one's life. It is a pattern of thought, experience and action – in other words, a way of living. In Bieri's account, there are three key dimensions to dignity as a way of living. The first is the way I am treated by others: they can treat me in a way that leaves my dignity intact or they can destroy my dignity. The second dimension concerns the way that I treat other people: do I treat them in a way that allows me to live a dignified life? The third dimension concerns the view that I have of myself: which ways of seeing and treating myself allow me to maintain a sense of dignity? In the actual flow of day-to-day life these three dimensions of dignity are often interwoven, and this accounts in part for the complexity of the situations and experiences in which our dignity is at stake. So, why did we invent dignity and what role does it play in our lives? As thinking and acting beings, our lives are fragile and constantly under threat. A dignified way of living, argues Bieri, is humanity's way of coping with this threat. In our constantly endangered lives, it is important to stand our ground with confidence. Thus a dignified way of living is not any way of living: it is a particular way of responding to the existential experience of being under threat. It is also a particular way of answering the question: What kind of life do we wish to live? This beautifully written reflection on our most cherished human value will be of interest to a wide readership.

If death is the cessation of life, then, as a concept, it draws its meaning from the preceding life. While death and dying are inextricably connected, dying is still a part of life—unlike death. The Meaning of Death: A Philosophical Investigation analyzes death and dying, the biotechnical quest for immortality, the afterlife, and the rationality of self-chosen death. Assuming eternal life will one day become possible, Kai Horsthemke argues that immortality is not obviously desirable, and that. even if the right to life in principle includes the right to eternal life, it must also include the right to self-determined dying and death. Although there is no creationist basis for existence and the finality of death remains a universal, inevitable prospect, this need not undermine confidence in the personal and transpersonal value of human activities. Life is valuable not only because of its uniqueness and unrepeatability, but also because it is finite. The meaning of death is essentially that it gives meaning to life.
