This groundbreaking book is the first collection to investigate the
law, political science and ethical perspectives collectively in
relation to the right and value of life. Its contributions from
international roster of scholars are organized around five themes:
a theoretical positioning of life and death; War, armed conflict
and detention; Death as punishment; Medical parameters for ending
life; and medical policies for the preservation of life. In
studying this issue in its contemporary contexts of "right" and
"value," the volume fills the current scholarly lacuna in the
general subject of the orientations of life. It presents a
much-needed examination of key issues in a broad practical and
theoretical context, and holds broad appeal for scholars,
researchers, and students occupied with issues of war, armed
conflict, the death penalty, and various contemporary medico-legal
scenarios.
