Despite its absence in the written text of the European Convention
on Human Rights, the European Court of Human Rights now regularly
uses the concept of autonomy when deciding cases concerning
assisted dying, sexuality and reproductive rights,
self-determination, fulfilment of choices and control over body and
mind. But is the concept of autonomy as expressed in the ECtHR
reasoning an appropriate tool for regulating reproduction or
medical practice? Caring Autonomy reveals and evaluates the type of
individual the ECtHR expresses and shapes through its
autonomy-based case law. It claims that from a social and ethical
perspective, the current individualistic interpretation of the
concept of autonomy is inadequate, and proposes a new reading of
the concept that is rooted in the acknowledgment and appreciation
of human interdependence and the importance of interpersonal trust
and care.
