This essay explores some of the conceptual and moral issues raised by illegal actions in health care. The author first identifies several types of illegal action, concentrating on civil disobedience, conscientious objection or refusal, and evasive noncompliance. Then he sketches a framework for the moral justification of these types of illegal action. Finally, he applies the conceptual and normative frameworks to several major cases of illegal action in health care, such as "mercy killing" and some decisions not to treat incompetent patients.
本文探讨了医疗保健领域中非法行为所引发的一些概念和道德问题。作者首先识别了几种非法行为类型，重点关注公民抗命、良心拒斥或拒绝，以及规避性不遵守。然后，他勾勒了一个对这些非法行为类型进行道德辩护的框架。最后，他将这一概念框架和规范框架应用于医疗保健领域的几起重大非法行为案例，如“安乐死”以及一些不治疗无行为能力患者的决定。
