Seminar 2 of MAID: Three Educational Seminar series

It reviews the dominance of individual autonomy over concern for persons made vulnerable by disability, poverty, and mental illness. It points out problems in the governance of MAiD, including low accountability in reporting and monitoring. Finally, it reveals how values in the public medicine have changed to accommodate MAiD.
