Abstract

In this study, the current situation of today's world practices and developmental trends are examined by evaluating cases of the death penalty, abortion, and euthanasia from the perspective of the right to life. A meta-analysis research method was used and the results of a total of 28 different analytical studies which are still relevant for each practice were interpreted as well. Meta-analysis findings have shown that the death penalty has no disincentive effect on criminal acts. This finding is interpreted as governments qualifying perpetrators who commit crimes corresponding to the death penalty as “idle person” or “dispensable person” and non-restorable in the foreseeable future. In the study, it was determined that abortion is not an ‘arbitrary’ act but has resulted from a ‘need’ in the context of social and economic factors. In the study findings were interpreted as euthanasia/assisted suicide practices have gained public acceptance recently.
