dc.description.abstractThe author explores some of the conceptual and moral issues raised when health care professionals or laypersons disobey laws related to health care. He sketches a framework for the moral justification of three major types of illegal action--civil disobedience, conscientious objection or refusal, and evasive noncompliance--and then applies his conceptual and normative frameworks to particular bioethical issues, such as "mercy killing" and treatment refusal.
