§ 217 StGB und Palliativmedizin - Eine Gefahr für Ärztinnen und Ärzte?

Im Spannungsfeld von Selbstbestimmung und Lebensschutz wird seit Jahrzehnten über Sterbehilfe diskutiert. Die Einführung von § 217 StGB, der Sterbehilfeorganisationen sowie Suizidbeihilfe in organisierter Form verbietet, und ein umstrittenes Urteil des BVerwG aus dem Jahr 2017, sorgen zudem für Klärungsbedarf. Mit Spannung wird daher die Entscheidung des BVerfG erwartet, welches in Kürze über mehrere Verfassungsbeschwerden zu § 217 StGB befinden wird. Die Arbeit geht mit einer eigenen Studie der Frage nach, welche Probleme bei der Anwendung der Norm tatsächlich bestehen. Die Ergebnisse der Onlinebefragung von Justizpraktikerinnen und -praktikern geben dabei Aufschluss über das Strafverfolgungsrisiko für medizinisches Fachpersonal.

In dubio pro vita?

Über das Spannungsverhältnis zwischen Lebensschutz und Selbstbestimmungsrecht am Lebensende wird seit Jahrzenten diskutiert. Auch heute noch muss aber in den Fällen über den Beginn oder die Aufrechterhaltung lebenserhaltender Therapie entschieden werden, in denen der Patientenwille unbekannt ist. Diese Arbeit untersucht, wann die für die Lebenserhaltung der Betroffenen notwendigen Eingriffe medizinisch indiziert sind. Die Untersuchung zeigt, dass die medizinische Indikation eine bedeutende Säule der Rechtmäßigkeit medizinischer Eingriffe auch am Lebensende darstellt. Wird die Indikation jedoch verneint, kann dies zu Konflikten mit dem Lebensschutz führen. Diese könnten nach dem Grundsatz "dubio pro vita" in der Weise gelöst werden, dass bei Unkenntnis über den Patientenwillen stets der Lebensverlängerung der Vorrang einzuräumen sei. Neben grundlegenden Ausführungen zur Bedeutung und zum Inhalt der Indikation stellt der Autor diesem Grundsatz ein Modell entgegen, wonach sich die Therapieentscheidung nach der medizinischen Indikation zu richten hat, bei deren Stellung subsidiär auch "allgemeine Wertvorstellungen" zu berücksichtigen sind.

How God Works

Drawing on a wealth of new evidence, pioneering research psychologist David DeSteno shows why religious practices and rituals are so beneficial to those who follow them—and to anyone, regardless of their faith (or lack thereof). Scientists are beginning to discover what believers have known for a long time: the rewards that a religious life can provide. For millennia, people have turned to priests, rabbis, imams, shamans, and others to help them deal with issues of grief and loss, birth and death, morality and meaning. In this absorbing work, DeSteno reveals how numerous religious practices from around the world improve emotional and physical well-being. With empathy and rigor, DeSteno chr...

The Cult of Personality Testing

Award-winning psychology writer Annie Paul delivers a scathing exposé on the history and effects of personality tests. Millions of people worldwide take personality tests each year to direct their education, to decide on a career, to determine if they'll be hired, to join the armed forces, and to settle legal disputes. Yet, according to award-winning psychology writer Annie Murphy Paul, the sheer number of tests administered obscures a simple fact: they don't work. Most personality tests are seriously flawed, and sometimes unequivocally wrong. They fail the field's own standards of validity and reliability. They ask intrusive questions. They produce descriptions of people that are nothing l...

The Disney Song Encyclopedia

Songs written for Disney productions over the decades have become a potent part of American popular culture. Since most Americans first discovered these songs in their youth, they hold a special place in one's consciousness. The Disney Song Encyclopedia describes and discusses hundreds of famous and not-so-famous songs from Disney films, television, Broadway, and theme parks from the 1930s to the present day. Over 900 songs are given individual entries and presented in alphabetical order. The songwriters and original singers are identified, as well as the source of the song and other venues in which it might have been used over the years. Notable recordings of the song are also listed. But most important, the song is described and what makes it memorable is discussed. This is not a reference list but a true encyclopedia of Disney songs. The book also contains a preface describing the criteria for selecting the songs, a glossary of song terms, a list of all the Disney songs and their sources, a songwriter's directory in which every song by each composer/lyricist is listed, a bibliography, a guide to recordings and DVDs of Disney productions, and an index of people and titles.
