Aktuelle Fragen des Medizinstrafrechts

Medical criminal law is a dynamic matter in which new and important questions are constantly being asked. The contributions in this volume deal with classical questions on the limits of medical knowledge (transplantation; pre-implantation diagnostics), as well as with problems arising from the quality of the health system as an important economic factor (fraud and corruption). But also quite new areas such as the prioritization discussion or the question of "obstetrical violence" are addressed. Each topic is treated in the same way from a German and a Spanish or Latin-American perspective, which leads to numerous new suggestions. The contributions show the course of a conference, which was held in spring 2015 at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg.
