Dershowitz on killing

how the law decides who shall live and who shall die
Examines the intersection of life, death, and the American legal system, exploring how the legal system in many cases decides who lives or dies. More broadly, the author employs moral, philosophical, cultural, and religious lenses to show how the government plays a role in who is killed and who lives in wars, executions, deadly force authorization, legalizing or making abortion illegal, and allowing or denying asylum for refugees. Notes the difference between a legal "right" versus a human interest, and argues that laws that decide whether someone lives or dies should honor the irreversibility of death.
