Document Summary
Professional autonomy perspective - professions like doctors and ministers and politicians are all fighting over who gets to control different kinds of work. Ex: definition of death originally religious, then to drs, then gov defines what death is. Law and action perspective - know what the law is, what people think the law is, and what people actually do with the law - think about why there are differences between these three things. Informed consent law - forms that you sign. Inequality - critical legal studies perspective - came about in response to major civil rights laws not being used in practice. Group 2 - read chapter 8 and 9. Drs haven"t always been a professional authority. Doctors before the laws could say that a baby was a stillborn if they had severe disabilities. Role of family drs knowing the medical history before record keeping.
