Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/SocialhögskolanSammanfattning : Can coercive care be justified against drug and alcohol addicts or should treatment be offered on a strictly voluntary basis?

This thesis tackles this question, and in partifular the possibility of implanting embryos with that screen positive for deafness, as deaf parents, especially those coming from the Deaf community who see their condition as a positive part of their identity and cultural belongingness, have expressed interest in ensuring the birth of a deaf child.
