Abstract

The article is devoted to a philosophical substantiation of the phenomenon of euthanasia as an interdisciplinary universal cultural problem. Being related to the sphere of medicine, the problem of euthanasia is also embedded in broad social and cultural context. Therefore, its solution implies transcending the bioethical approach with its inherent dualism. Moreover, this solution requires to be substantiated bу means of the parameters of mono-cultural axiomatics, whose analogue in medicine is the Hippocratic Oath.
