Essay

Given the following position on euthanasia (doctor-assisted suicide), identify which of the three major ethical theories discussed in the text-utilitarianism, duty theory, or virtue ethics-it follows. Note that each theory may encompass several possible viewpoints on an issue.

In that case, with circumstances strictly identified, it would be possible to imagine it to be a universal law that everyone under these specific circumstances could be allowed access to euthanasia.
