Kilka uwag o relacji prawa karnego i moralności wokół problematyki samobójstwa
A few comments on the relationship between criminal law and morality in the context of suicide-related matters

Summary/Abstract: The article is a study of the philosophy of criminal law, reflecting on selected problems resulting from the relationship between the norms of criminal law and moral norms that stand to the fore when analysing the issue of suicide. The study mainly applies theoretical reasoning and an analysis of the law in force. The author attempts to show the importance of moral issues in criminal law, initially identifying the corresponding suicide-related subject matter, and then noticing their universal nature in criminal law and in law in genere. It turns out that many significant general conclusions regarding the relationship between criminal law and morality (both in the field of philosophy and doctrines of criminal law) can be drawn from the narrow subject matter of suicide. This at the same time allows for the formulation of a catalogue of legal desiderata regarding the creation and application of criminal law.
