摘　　要： The issue of death with dignity has been usually understood in the scope of the issues of euthanasia.But properly construed,the concept of dignity,when applied to the issue of death,has its own scope that does not have a particular connection to the concept of euthanasia.Dignity pertains primarily to a deontological concern of individual autonomy and thus is independent of the utilitarian concern of reducing pain and suffering,and so dignity defense can justify not only some forms of life-ending of the "terminally ill" in a hospital setting,but also some cases of suicide apart from any medical consideration.
