Deasoon ideas are doctrine of Deasoonjinrihoe, which was founded by Ilsoon Gang, religious thinker in the late of Josun Dynasty. This study aims at examining influences of Confucius ideas implicit in Deasoon ideas and finding out their meaning in the modern society. Ilsoon Gang considered Confucianism very important when he forms his Deasoon ideas and after all, he included Confucius ideas to Deasoon ideas to develop his own religious theory. The meanings of Deasoon ideas in the modern world are as follows: First, Deasoon's harmonious ideas on yin and yang can be a healing method to solve conflicts and confrontations of the modern society. Second, Deasoon's harmony between God and humans and ideas on human dignity is helpful to solve human isolation that the modern society faces. Third, Deasoon's ideas that human's hostility and grudge must be healed teaches loves and co-existence to humans. Fourth, Dotongjinkyeong, which is Deasoon's ideal world, is the world where communication between an individual and the whole, God and humans, a human and a human, and humans and the nature perfectly are harmonized.

전통적인 법이론에 의하여 인간은 권리의 주체이기 때문에 인체로부터 유래한 생물학적 물질은 권리의 객체가 될 수 없다. 하지만 의학과 생명과학의 발전으로 인하여 인체로 부터 유래한 생물학적 물질은 다양한 용도로 사용되고 있으며 인체로부터 유래한 생물학적 물질의 객체성 여부와 소유권 인정 여부에 대한 논의는 지속적으로 제기되고 있다. 인체로부터 유래한 생물학적 물질을 법적으로 파악하는 이론은 전통적으로 자율성에 근거한 모델이었으며 현재도 그것이 가장 보편적으로 받아들여지고 있다. 하지만 자율성 모델에 의하여 인체로부터 유래한 생물학적 물질을 파악할 경우 인체로부터 유래한 생물학적 물질을 다루는 현실을 제대로 설명할 수 없을 뿐만 아니라 오히려 배분적 정의의 측면에서 볼 때 적절하지 못한 결론에 도달할 수도 있다는 의문이 제기되고 있다. 인체 유래 생물학적 물질을 소유권의 객체로 파악하려는 소유권 모델은 인간의 존엄과 가치에 반하는 이론 구성이라는 의혹을 받고 있다. 하지만 소유권은 단일한 권리가 아니며 다양한 권리들의 집합체이며 그 내용이 어떻게 구성될 것인가는 객체의 특성 등을 고려하여 판단하면 될 것으로 생각된다. 본 논문은 인체 유래 생물학적 물질의 소유권 전체 보다는 일단 사체로부터 유래한 물질의 소유권 인정 여부를 중점적으로 다루었다. 이를 통하여 인체 유래 생물학적 물질전반에 대한 법이론적 고찰이 현재의 과학적 사실에 적합한 형태로 이루어지기를 기대한다.

이 연구의 목적은 존엄사에 대한 한국 중년층의 인식유형을 파악하고 그 특성을 분석함으로써 존엄사에 대한 제도마련 및 정책을 구성하는데 필요한 기초적인 자료를 제공하고자 하는 것이다. 존엄사에 관한 30개의 진술문을 가지고, 32명의 중년층을 대상으로 Q 분류를 하였다. 분석결과 존엄사에 대한 주관적인 인식유형과 그 특성은 허용형, 반대형, 제한적 허용형으로 나타났다. 허용형은 환자의 자기결정권에 의한 존엄사는 수용되어야 하며, 극심한 고통을 동반하는 환자에게 존엄사는 필요하다고 생각한다. 반대형은 존엄사가 허용되면 부당하게 죽음을 맞이하는 이들이 늘어나며, 인간의 생명경시 풍조가 만연해질 것이라고 생각한다. 제한적 허용형은 존엄사를 허용하기에 앞서 구체적인 법과 제도가 마련되어야 한다고 생각한다. 존엄사라는 주제 자체가 국민들의 온전한 합의를 이끌어낼 수 없는 것일 수 있지만, 존엄사제도 추진과정에서 국민의 의견이 반영되어야 할 것이다.

Is it lawful to withhold or withdraw life-sustaining treatment applied to a patient in a terminal condition or permanent unconscious condition? In Korea, there are no such laws or regulations which control affairs related to the withholding or withdrawal life-support treatment and active euthanasia as the Natural Death Act or the Death with Dignity Act in the U. S. A. And in addition there has had no precedent of Supreme Court. Recently Supreme Court has pronounced a historical judgment on a terminal care case. The court allowed the withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment from a patient in a permanent unconscious state. Fundamentally the court judged that the continuation of that medical treatment would infringe dignity and value of a patient as a human being. And the court required some legal grounds to consider such withdrawal or withholding of medical care lawful. The legal grounds are as follow. First, the patient is in a incurable and irreversible condition and already entered a stage of death. Second, the patient executed a directive, in advance, directing the withholding or withdrawal of life-support treatment in a incurable and irreversible condition or in a terminal condition. Otherwise, at least, the patient's will would be presumed through his/her character, view of value, philosophy, religious faith and career etc. I regard if a patient is in a incurable and irreversible condition or in a terminal condition, the medical contract between a patient and a doctor would be terminated because of the actual impossibility of achievement of it's purpose. So I think the discontinuation of life-sustaining care would be legally allowed without depending on the patient's own will.

The finite nature of human existence leads many to search for meaning, which comes into sharper relief for those who are imminently facing death. Therefore, universal existential concerns such as the inevitability of death, existential isolation, loss of meaning, freedom, and dignity are inherent psychological issues in palliative care. Consequently, one of the critical challenges facing palliative care is how to address these issues effectively. This paper provides an overview of common themes of existential concerns and psychotherapeutic interventions to address existential distress among patients in palliative care.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze attitude toward dignified dying of Korean students majoring in human service area. Methods: The Q-methodology which provides a method of analyzing the subjectivity of each item was used. The 34 selected Q-statements from each of 38 subjects were classified into a shape of normal distribution using a 9 point scale. The collected data was analyzed using a QUANL PC program. Results: Four types of attitude toward dignified dying from the subjects were identified. Type I is an expression type for happy emotion, Type II is a dislike type for life prolongation, Type III is a pursuit type for relationship improvement, and Type IV is a perception type for family presence. Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that integrating multi-disciplinary curriculum development related to dignified dying and death education for students majoring in human service area are needed.

본 논문은 성인의 심페소생술 금지(DNR)에 대한 인식 및 태도에 대한 서술적 조사 연구이다. 구조화된 설문지를 이용하였으며, 연구 대상은 210명이었다. DNR에 대한 인식에서는 '편안한 죽음을 위해(64.3%)' DNR이 도움이 된다고 긍정적으로 응답하였으며, 상황에 따른 DNR의 필요성은 '품위 있는 죽음을 위함(41.3%)' '환자의 고통을 줄여주기 위해(23.9%)' 등이었으며, DNR에 동의하지 않는 응답자의 이유는 '법적 문제가 제기 될 수 있기 때문(61.7%)', '인간의 존엄성은 생명유지가 최우선이기 때문(16.7%)' 등의 순이었다. DNR에 대한 태도는 '내가 불치병을 가졌을 때 사실을 알기 원하는지의 여부'가 평균 4.21점으로 가장 높았으며, 성인의 연령대별 DNR에 대한 태도에는 차이가 없었다. 심폐소생술 금지는 연명치료 중단의 방법이 아니라 인간이 임종과정과 죽음에 대한 자율권을 행사하는 포괄적 맥락에서 다루어져야 할 것이다.

Over the past quarter century, research on physical punishment has proliferated. Almost without exception, these studies have identified physical punishment as a risk factor in children's behavioral, emotional, cognitive and brain development. At the same time, the United Nations has established that physical punishment constitutes a breach of children's basic human rights to protection and dignity. Together, research findings and human rights standards have propelled profound global change. To date, 51 countries have prohibited all physical punishment of children. In this article, we review the literature on physical punishment within its historical context, and provide recommendations for health professionals working with families.

The Universal Design(UD) is a recent issue related to preserve human dignity, equality and human settlements. This study is aimed at describing circumstances and problems of residential bathrooms and in identifying the awareness and needs of adapting the UD concept for residential bathrooms. 570 persons with various physical conditions completed questionnaires that were used as data in this study. The results showed that the respondents' awareness of the UD was very low, but that their needs for adapting the UD concept was relatively high. Safety was the most important factor in adapting the UD, followed by convenience and accessibility. In conclusion, three types of specific design considerations for residential bathroom planning were suggested through the adaptation of the UD.
