INFORMATION in PURSUIT of the “GOOD DEATH”: LIBRARIES' ROLE in the DEATH POSITIVITY MOVEMENT (Paper)
Roger Chabot Western University, London, Ontario, Canada INFORMATION IN PURSUIT OF THE “GOOD DEATH”: LIBRARIES’ ROLE IN THE DEATH POSITIVITY MOVEMENT (Paper) Abstract: The Death Positivity Movement (DPM) is a recent social and activist movement seeking to change the North American “culture of silence” surrounding death and dying. Seeking to engage with the conference theme of “conversations across boundaries,” this presentation presents arguments as to why libraries should be involved in the movement and also outlines more specifically actions that they can take to be involved. In this presentation, a short introduction to the DPM will be provided, followed by a brief discussion of the concept of the “good death”. Arguments will then be made explaining why libraries should be involved in the DPM and then the last section explores more specifically how libraries can be involved through collection development, community assistance and programming. 1. Introduction The Death Positivity Movement (DPM, or sometimes Death Positive Movement) is a recent social and activist movement seeking to change the North American “culture of silence” (Doughty, 2019b) surrounding death and dying. The modern DPM is relatively novel, and until now has been primarily driven through the publishing and sharing of content on social media (Hayasaki, 2013). However, as the movement grows, libraries are well positioned to be involved in the movement through their role as information providers and community builders. In turn, the pursuit of the goals of the DPM fulfills the mission of libraries. In engaging with the CAIS/ACSI 2019 conference theme of “conversations across boundaries,” this presentation explores the current and future relationship between the DPM and libraries to bring awareness to it and to further promote its growth. -
Funeral & Obituary Planning Booklet
Funeral & Obituary Planning Booklet FROM THE PASTOR… Cremation or Not Disposition of the bodies of deceased Catholics by means of cremation is a fairly recent development. The 1917 Code of Canon Law forbade the practice, and this prohibition continued until 1963. While making allowance for cremation (as long as it was not chosen as a sign of denial of Christian teaching) the 1963 instruction Piam et Constantem issued by the Holy Office (now the Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith) urged that “the practice of burying the bodies of the faithful is by all means to be kept.” This 1963 concession is provided for in the 1969 Ordo Exsequiarum, the Latin edition of the revised Catholic funeral ritual and was later incorporated into the 1983 Code of Canon Law in canon 1176: “The Church earnestly recommends that the pious custom of burying the bodies of the dead be observed; it does not, however, forbid cremation unless it has been chosen for reasons which are contrary to Christian teaching.” The Order of Christian Funerals reflects a theology and a tradition in which burial of the body has been the principal manner of final disposition of the body. The long-standing practice of burying the body of the deceased in a grave or tomb as Jesus, continues to be encouraged as a sign of Christian faith. However, owing to contemporary cultural interaction, the practice of cremation has become part of Catholic practice in the United States and other parts of the western world. Although cremation is now permitted it does not enjoy the same value as burial of the body. -

Death Positivity and Death Justice in the Anthropocene by Danika Vilene Jorgensen Skakum A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts In Gender and Social Justice Studies Department of Women's and Gender Studies University of Alberta © Danika Vilene Jorgensen Skakum, 2018 Death Positivity and Death Justice ii Abstract The Death Positivity Movement is a relatively new group of advocates who argue for greater death acceptance in Western society. This thesis explores how the Death Positivity Movement might help humans respond justly to mass death in the Anthropocene, when gross ecological change threatens human extinction and the extinction of other species. Using a number of sociological texts to contextualize the movement’s claims —in turn gathered from a swath of popular news articles and the movement’s online material — this thesis concludes that the Death Positivity Movement might practically apply to death denial in the Anthropocene, described by the author as the refusal to acknowledge those deaths associated with environmental change and reliance on techno-scientific geoengineering solutions. However, this thesis also draws significantly from Donna Haraway’s use of the “compost” to expand the Death Positivity Movement’s understanding of social justice and a “good death for all” for a non-human context as well. Death Positivity and Death Justice iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank a number of people for supporting me in this thesis writing adventure. First, my amazing supervisor Chloë Taylor. I could not have dreamed up a better supervisor if I tried! Thank you for all that you do, and for all of your time and labor. -
The Constitution After Death
THE CONSTITUTION AFTER DEATH Fred O. Smith, Jr.* From mandating separate and unequal gravesites, to condoning mutilation after lynchings, to engaging in cover-ups after wrongful police shootings, governmental actors have often degraded dignity in death. This Article offers an account of the constitutional law of the dead and takes aim at a legal rule that purports to categorically exclude the dead from constitutional protection. The rule rests on two faulty premises. The first is that the dead are incapable of being rights-holders. The second is that there are no sound policy reasons for recognizing constitutional rights after death. The first premise is undone by a robust common law tradition of protecting the dead’s dignitary interests and testamentary will. As for the second premise, posthumous rights can promote human pursuits by pro- tecting individuals’ memory, enforcing their will, and accommodating their diverse spiritual beliefs. Posthumous legal rights can also foster equality by shielding against the stigma and terror that have historically accompanied the abuse of the dead. The Constitution need not remain silent when governmental actors engage in abusive or unequal treatment in death. Understanding the dead as constitutional rights-holders opens the door to enhanced ac- countability through litigation and congressional enforcement of the Reconstruction Amendments. Beyond that, understanding the dead as rights-holders can influence the narratives that shape our collective legal, * Associate Professor, Emory Law School.
