This chapter identifies several respects in which medical law in England and Wales suffers from a lack of ethical coherence in relation to its protection of human life. It argues that it is philosophically incoherent for the law to calibrate its protection of human life according to arbitrary stages of human development such as birth, viability, the fourteenth day after fertilization, and implantation. To the extent that the law permits life-sustaining treatment to be withheld or withdrawn from incompetent patients on the ground that their ‘quality of life’ is insufficient, and even with an intent to hasten death, it again displays ethical incoherence. If legislators or judges were to make it lawful for physicians to intentionally assist suicidal refusals of treatment, or to endorse a right to physician-assisted suicide for the ‘terminally ill’, the law's ethical incoherence would be seriously aggravated.

O envolvimento de adolescentes com a violência e a prática de atos infracionais é um grave problema da atualidade, considerando as estatísticas de jovens em medidas socioeducativas de privação de liberdade e outras modalidades de atendimento, principalmente, no Brasil. Para se compreender essa realidade se deve levar em conta os vários fatores psicológicos, sociais e culturais envolvidos, buscando-se a interlocução entre os diferentes saberes científicos para evitar uma leitura simplista e/ou unilateral do problema. Nessa perspectiva e visando contribuir para a ampliação da análise do adolescente em conflito com a lei, o presente trabalho apresenta a perspectiva teórica da psicanálise winnicottiana, que entende que o processo de desenvolvimento humano depende amplamente da provisão ambiental para que o sujeito se integre e possa se relacionar com o mundo de forma saudável. Em situações nas quais o ambiente é muito intrusivo, não respeitando ou contemplando as demandas mais emergentes da criança, pode-se desenvolver uma conduta, chamada por Winnicott de Tendência Antissocial. No texto são apresentadas as principais características desse tipo de conduta e sua relação com a prática de atos infracionais, destacando que tal prática pode sinalizar um pedido de ajuda e a busca no ambiente por algo que possa restaurar o que foi retirado e perdido. Além disso, são discutidas as orientações acerca das intervenções clínicas e institucionais para os adolescentes em conflito com a lei, tendo como âncora a psicanálise de orientação winnicottiana.Palavras-chave: Adolescência.

Winnicott.AbstractThe involvement of adolescents with violence and the practice of infractions is a serious problem today, considering the statistics of young people in socio-educational measures of freedom of freedom and other modes of care, mainly in Brazil. In order to understand this reality, various psychological, social and cultural factors involved should be taken into account, seeking the interlocution among different scientific bodies of knowledge to avoid a simplistic and/or unilateral reading of the problem. In this perspective and aiming to contribute to the expansion of the adolescent analysis in conflict with the law, the present work presents the theoretical perspective of the winnicottian psychoanalysis, which understands that the human development process depends largely on the environmental provision so that the subject integrates and can relate to the world in a healthy way. In situations where the environment is very intrusive, not respecting or contemplating the most emergent demands of the child, could develop a behavior, called by Winnicott Antisocial Tendency. The main characteristics of this type of conduct and its relation with the practice of infractions are highlighted in the text, pointing that such conduct can signal a request for help and the search in the environment for something that can restore what was taken and lost. In addition, the guidelines on clinical and institutional interventions for adolescents in conflict with the law are discussed, with the anchor of the winnicottian orientation psychoanalysis.Keywords: Adolescence.

“My patient refuses thickened liquids, should I discharge them from my caseload?” A version of this question appears at least weekly on the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association's Community pages. People talk of respecting the patient's right to be non-compliant with speech-language pathology recommendations. We challenge use of the word “respect” and calling a patient “non-compliant” in the same sentence: does use of the latter term preclude the former? In this article we will share our reflections on why we are interested in these so called “ethical challenges” from a personal case level to what our professional duty requires of us. Our proposal is that the problems that we encounter are less to do with ethical or moral puzzles and usually due to inadequate communication. We will outline resources that clinicians may use to support their work from what seems to be a straightforward case to those that are mired in complexity. And we will tackle fears and facts regarding litigation and the law.
