Proceeding from more analytical studies previously conducted by the Author about the regulatory developments on the subject of the end of life, the paper contains a summary reflection concerning the critical issues of an opening, although limited according to the criteria defined by the Constitutional Court (judgment no. 242 of 2019), towards forms of direct cooperation of the doctor in the suicide of the patient. After an introduction about the risks associated with a shift of public concern from the sphere of social rights, such as healthcare, to the sphere of rights aimed at a privatized management of individual matters, the problems, which are still open in the current legal framework, relating to the doctor-patient relationship in sight of decisions on medical treatments are examined.

Il testo costituisce una riflessione di sintesi – sulla base di precedenti studi più analitici dell’Autore circa le varie fasi degli sviluppi normativi rispetto ai temi del fine vita – in merito ai nodi critici di un’apertura, pur circoscritta secondo i criteri definiti dalla sentenza n. 242/2019 della Corte costituzionale, verso forme di cooperazione diretta del medico al suicidio del paziente. Operata una premessa riguardante i rischi di uno spostamento dell’interesse, nell’opinione pubblica, dall’ambito dei diritti sociali, come quello alla salute, all’ambito di diritti rivolti a una gestione privatizzata dei problemi individuali, vengono passati, preventivamente, in rassegna i problemi che restano aperti, nel quadro giuridico attuale, per quanto concerne il rapporto del medico con il malato ai fini delle decisioni sui trattamenti sanitari.

Abstract

Proceeding from more analytical studies previously conducted by the Author about the regulatory developments on the subject of the end of life, the paper contains a summary reflection concerning the critical issues of an opening, although limited according to the criteria defined by the Constitutional Court (judgment no. 242 of 2019), towards forms of direct cooperation of the doctor in the suicide of the patient. After an introduction about the risks associated with a shift of public concern from the sphere of social rights, such as healthcare, to the sphere of rights aimed at a privatized management of individual matters, the problems, which are still open in the current legal framework, relating to the doctor-patient relationship in sight of decisions on medical treatments are examined.
