  • Chapter Two – the Institutional
    CHAPTER TWO – THE INSTITUTIONAL The purpose of this chapter is to provide a brief history of the development of the doctrine of state action up to West v. Atkins (1988); and, to describe the institutional setting, contemporary values and the legal, social, and medical contexts in which West was granted certiorari and heard by the United States Supreme Court. In order to understand the history of the doctrine of state action it is necessary to look at the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. The Doctrine of State Action and the Fourteenth Amendment The Court’s understanding of state action has been evolving as its “dialogue with itself” continues (Rohr, 1989). This evolving dialogue has produced insights as changing circumstances have challenged earlier interpretations, as the court’s membership has changed, and as the political and external environments have prompted reviews and reinterpretations. In Chapter One, I quoted Jethro Lieberman’s definition of state action as “… the rule that constitutional restraints and limitations may be applied only to things that the government does, not to actions of private individuals” (Lieberman, 1999) and Maimon Schwarzschild’s efforts to encapsulate the concept: The state action doctrine … is the principle that the laws and policies of government must respect due process, equal protection, and free speech, but that there is no constitutional obligation on the private citizen or private organization to do likewise (Schwarzschild, 1989). The principal issue for the Anti-Federalists in the Federalist/Anti-Federalist debates that preceded the ratification of the Constitution of the United States was one of protecting individuals from the extensive powers that were proposed for the new centralized federal government.

  • The Nuremberg Code-British Medical Journal No 7070 Volume 313 Page
    Nuremberg Code BRITISH MEDICAL JOURNAL No 7070 Volume 313: Page 1448, 7 December 1996. CIRP Introduction The judgment by the war crimes tribunal at Nuremberg laid down 10 standards to which physicians must conform when carrying out experiments on human subjects in a new code that is now accepted worldwide. This judgment established a new standard of ethical medical behavior for the post World War II human rights era. Amongst other requirements, this document enunciates the requirement of voluntary informed consent of the human subject. The principle of voluntary informed consent protects the right of the individual to control his own body. This code also recognizes that the risk must be weighed against the expected benefit, and that unnecessary pain and suffering must be avoided. This code recognizes that doctors should avoid actions that injure human patients. The principles established by this code for medical practice now have been extened into general codes of medical ethics. The Nuremberg Code (1947) Permissible Medical Experiments The great weight of the evidence before us to effect that certain types of medical experiments on human beings, when kept within reasonably well-defined bounds, conform to the ethics of the medical profession generally. The protagonists of the practice of human experimentation justify their views on the basis that such experiments yield results for the good of society that are unprocurable by other methods or means of study. All agree, however, that certain basic principles must be observed in order to satisfy moral, ethical and legal concepts: 1. The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential.

    UFLC 74 Interviewee: Chesterfield Smith Interviewer: Julian Pleasants Date: January 14, 2000 and March 9, 2000 P: This is Julian Pleasants, and I am in Miami speaking with Mr. Chesterfield Smith. It is January 14, 2000. Mr. Smith, tell me when and where you were born. S: I was born on July 28, 1917 in De Soto County. P: And were you born in [the town of] Arcadia? S: I am a little confused, frankly, as to where I was born. My parents were living in a small town in south De Soto County, Fort Ogden, nine miles away where my father was principal of the school. Yet, my father was from Arcadia. My mother was from Dade City. I have often said that I was born in Arcadia and my sister, who is younger than me and does not know, has said, no, I was born in Dade City. I do not remember who told me since then that I was actually born in Fort Ogden. I do have a birth certificate somewhere, but I do not want to say now with certainty. It was Florida. I guess that you can get the birth certificate, can you not, if you ask for them? P: Yes. S: I just have not done that. I always put down Arcadia as the place that I was born. P: What was De Soto County like when you were growing up? S: When I was born, De Soto County was geographically quite big, but because of the political desire outside Arcadia to get more state representatives, in 1921 the legislature divided De Soto County into five counties, and each county got a representative.
