Sommario/riassunto |
|
One of the aims of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child is to accord due recognition to the fact that 'the child, by reason of his phsyical and mental immaturity, needs special safeguards and care, including appropriate legal protection, before as well as after birth'. However, a question mark hangs over the extent to which 'special safeguards and care' can negatively impact on the rights of the child and result in discrimination against the child in the guise of 'his physical and mental immaturity'. This volume explores the extent to which children's rights are secured at the national level; and the |

reasons why children's rights have or have not been recognised and secured by various states at the level of domestic law. It also explores the difficulties inherent in the accordance of rights to children in order to ascertain whether they do in fact derive from the particular nature of children or whether they mask a reluctance of states to fulfil their domestic and international rights obligations to children, and whether such reluctance constitutes 'discrimination against children'. The volume thus explores the theoretical and legal underpinnings of gender and race discrimination, at both the domestic and international level, and examines the extent to which these may be applied to the area of children's rights. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
A medical measure influences the physical and mental integrity of the affected people. The right of determination is also part of a person's personality. The individual can exercise his right of self determination only when its decision conditions and justifies medical practice. Is an adolescent due to an illness or disability not able to excersise decisions, these have to be made by a representative of legal transactions - an agent - or taken by a legal representative - a |

supervisor. In this study, the different representation schemes on health matters are presented. |
Eine ärztliche Maßnahme tastet die leibliche und gegebenenfalls die seelische Integrität eines Menschen an. Die Bestimmung darüber ist ein Teil der Personalität eines Menschen. Der Einzelne kann sein Selbstbestimmungsrecht nur wahrnehmen, wenn seine Entscheidung Voraussetzung gerechtfertigten ärztlichen Handelns ist. Kann ein Volljähriger auf Grund einer Krankheit oder Behinderung darüber nicht befinden, können Entscheidungen durch einen rechtsgeschäftlichen Vertreter einen Bevollmächtigten oder durch einen gesetzlichen Vertreter einen Betreuer getroffen werden. In der vorliegenden Untersuchung werden die unterschiedlichen Vertretungsregelungen im Bereich der Gesundheitsangelegenheiten dargestellt. Es wird zudem geprüft, ob es das Selbstbestimmungsrecht des Einzelnen gebietet, eine weitere automatische Vertretungsmöglichkeit für nahe Angehörige zu normieren. Es wird auch erwogen, auf welche Grundlage eine entsprechende Befugnis gestützt werden, in welchen Fällen und unter welchen Voraussetzungen sie eingreifen könnte. |
