- W4313349194 abstract "This chapter examines concepts and criteria of death and the coherence of their associations. Concepts of death fall into two broad categories: non-ontological and ontological. Non-ontological concepts include death as a cluster kind and death as a process; the corresponding criteria are stipulative, based on pragmatic concerns. Ontological concepts are essentially either psychological (cessation of “personhood,” equated with capacity for thinking and self-awareness) or biological (cessation of the human organism). The psychological concept corresponds to a “higher brain” criterion, namely irreversible, permanent nonfunction (destruction) of bilateral thalami (the sufficiency of neocortical destruction alone being uncertain); anatomically broader criteria are sufficient but not necessary. The biological concept corresponds to a criterion of irreversible, permanent cessation of circulation of oxygenated blood (irreversible cessation of brain function being necessary but not sufficient). Irreversible apneic unconsciousness is best understood not as a concept of death but as a stipulative criterion. Concepts of life and death and their corresponding criteria derive from fundamental worldviews, on which there has been no consensus for over two millennia, nor is there likely ever to be. Respect for deeply held fundamental worldviews requires allowance for personal specification of circulatory or brain-based criteria." @default.
