Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Decides? : Abortion, Assisted Dying, Capital Punishment, and Torture Paperback / softback
by Sheldon Ekland-Olson
Part of the Sociology Re-Wired series
Paperback / softback
Description
Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Decides? looks at several of the most contentious issues in many societies.
The book asks, whose rights are protected? How do these rights and protections change over time, and who makes those decisions?
This book explores the fundamentally sociological processes which underlie the quest for morality and justice in human societies.
The author sheds light on the social movements and social processes at the root of these seemingly personal moral questions.
The third edition contains a new chapter on torture entitled, "Taking Life and Inflicting Suffering."
