La morte e il morire: un problema tecnico o una questione di senso?

While death has been transformed into a taboo argument, dying occupies the whole bioethical and political scene in Italy as well as abroad. This is a consequence of the fact that technology applied to medicine has made more uncertain the limits between natural and artificial, causing in some the expectation of an unlimited extension of life, in others a total refusal for fear of overtreatment. Philosophy may offer a reflective frame in order to consider the argument not just as a technical or political problem but also as a matter of meaning.
