生命权是与自由权、财产权并称的人类的3大基本人权,联合国《国际人权宪章》在其《世界人权宣言》与《公民权利和政治权利的国际公约》两个人权公约中,以及在各级区域组织的文件里,都明确提及了生命权,世界上不少国家的宪法也对此作出了相应规定,然而如今人们对生命权的重视程度却远没有另两项基本人权那么高。考虑到有关死刑、安乐死等问题的合理安排,我国宪法至今仍未将生命权纳入公民的基本权利范畴,但依照我国民主法治建设的进程来说,生命权入宪已势在必行,如何在充分理解的基础上将生命权写进宪法,已成为法学界面临的重要课题之一。生命权的演进历程及其涵义西方法学界关于生命权的思想萌 The right to life is the three basic human rights of mankind, which are combined with the right to freedom and property.
