Summary/Abstract: Julian Savulescu performs an analysis of the relationship between autonomy and the idea of a “good life”, starting from the perspective of controversial elections. The author shows that the choices based on individual values and different from the common ones, represent a challenge in generally, and particularly in medical ethics, which call into question the principle of action in the interest of the patient.
