The Principle of Responsibility for Illness and its Application in the Allocation of Health Care: A Critical Analysis
In Olaru Bogdan, Autonomy, Responsibility, and Health Care. Critical Essays. Zeta Books. pp. 191-220 (2008)
Abstract
In this paper I analyze a view that is increasingly spreading among philosophers and even physicians. Many of them believe that it is right to apply the principle of responsibility for illness in the allocation of health care. I attempt to show that this idea is unacceptable.Author's Profile
