Центральное место в работе занимает анализ соотношения фундаментального права на жизнь и принципа личной автономии, из которого выводится возможность признания права на добровольный уход из жизни. Опираясь на практику Европейского суда по правам человека, авторы рассматривают доктрину «предела усмотрения государств» при регулировании вопросов прекращения жизни, а также международно-правовые требования, ориентированные на защиту уязвимых категорий лиц, обеспечение прозрачности процедур и недопущение злоупотреблений. Исследование национальных правовых моделей отдельных европейских государств свидетельствует об отсутствии унифицированного подхода и наличии спектра решений – от нормативного разрешения эвтаназии до приоритета развития паллиативной помощи. Особый акцент сделан на значении институциональных предпосылок, включая доступность паллиативной медицины, функционирование независимых контрольных механизмов, соблюдение профессиональных стандартов медицинской этики и оценку состояния пациента. В заключение обосновывается вывод о том, что допустимость легализации эвтаназии возможна исключительно при наличии комплексной системы гарантий, обеспечивающей баланс между защитой жизни, правами человека и уважением к автономии личности.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The article is devoted to a comprehensive examination of the legal, ethical, and constitutional dimensions of euthanasia within the contemporary European legal framework. The core focus of the study lies in the relationship between the fundamental right to life and the principle of personal autonomy, from which a potential right to die may be derived. Drawing on the case law of the European Court of Human Rights, the article analyses the doctrine of the “margin of appreciation” afforded to states in regulating matters concerning the termination of life, as well as the requirements of international standards aimed at protecting vulnerable groups, ensuring procedural transparency, and preventing abuse. An analysis of national legal models across a number of European states reveals the absence of a unified approach and highlights the existence of diverse regulatory strategies, ranging from the full legalisation of euthanasia to an emphasis on the development of palliative care.</p><p>Particular attention is paid to the necessity of appropriate institutional conditions, including the availability of advanced palliative care services, the operation of independent oversight mechanisms, adherence to professional medical ethics, and a thorough assessment of the patient’s health status. The article concludes that the legalisation of euthanasia may be considered permissible only where a comprehensive system of safeguards is in place, capable of maintaining a balanced reconciliation between the protection of life, respect for human rights, and recognition of personal autonomy.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>эвтаназия</kwd><kwd>достоинство</kwd><kwd>автономия личности</kwd><kwd>конституционное право</kwd><kwd>паллиативная медицина</kwd><kwd>государство</kwd><kwd>международное право</kwd><kwd>право на жизнь</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>euthanasia</kwd><kwd>dignity</kwd><kwd>personal autonomy</kwd><kwd>constitutional law</kwd><kwd>palliative care</kwd><kwd>state</kwd><kwd>international law</kwd><kwd>the right to life</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Rahman, S.
