Assisted dying, discrimination, and structural injustice[electronic resource] /by Yoann Della Croce. - Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :2025. - ix, 63 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - SpringerBriefs in ethics,2211-811X. - SpringerBriefs in ethics..

Chapter 1. Introduction -- Chapter 2. Discrimination and Assisted Dying -- Chapter 3. Structural Injustice in Assisted Dying -- Chapter 4. Conclusion: Politicizing Assisted Dying.

This book provides an overview of discrimination and structural injustice in assisted dying. It differentiates between direct and indirect discrimination at both the individual and organizational levels, and it pays particular attention to indirect discrimination due to structural factors that have been systemically overlooked. Whereas bioethics literature has traditionally engaged with discrimination on the basis of disability or exclusionary legal barriers, comparatively little attention has been devoted to the cases of individuals who are not legally excluded from access, but are effectively unable to access assisted suicide for other reasons, such as being inhabitants of rural areas with no reasonable access, being prisoners, or, in certain cases, low-income individuals. A conceptual mapping of this kind provides a finer understanding of the overall architecture of the ethical debate surrounding assisted dying and clarifies its moral wrongs. Finally, this book shows the inherent political dimension of assisted dying, where the ethics of assisted dying are not only about principles of autonomy and liberty in death and dying, but also about social justice and equality. The book offers a robust normative claim ensuring fair and equal opportunity of access to assisted dying. This book is of interest to philosophers, policymakers, public health experts, and political scientists interested in the issue of discrimination in the context of assisted dying.
