Conflict Consortium Abstract

In this article, the authors "review the values held in common by the euthanasia legalization movement and palliative care providers. Outlining this common ground serves to define, with greater clarity, the issues on which differences do exist, and ways in which some open questions, which are as yet unresolved, could be approached." They proposed open discussion as a way to address persisting moral questions.

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi
Though nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize four times, Gandhi never received the award. Yet, his practice of nonviolent social action and humanitarianism enduringly provides history with one of the most poignant examples of the peaceful change that one individual can inspire.
