摘要

：残疾人的生命会被视为法律伤害吗？法院能否比较存在与不存在，并发现在某些情况下，后者更可取？“值得继续的生活”和“值得实现的生活”之间是否存在不对称？在过去的几十年里，所谓的“错误生命”案件引发了一系列法律和道德问题。本文试图阐明这些非典型渎职案件所特有的一些潜在问题，并对罗马尼亚的“不当生命”案件进行批判性评论，以及描述哲学家或法律学者阐述的一些解决方案。最后，作为新颖性，根据Benatar对当前生活和未来生活案件的区分，本文提出了“不当生活”案件的可受理门槛。

The Necessary Arbitrariness in Drawing a Line: Something must be ‘Wrongful’

: Could the life a disabled person be considered a legal injury? Can the courts compare existence and non-existence and find that in some cases the latter is preferable? Is there an asymmetry between ‘a life worth continuing’ and ‘a life worth bringing about’? In the last decades the so-called ‘wrongful life’ cases have raised a series of legal and moral problems. This essay attempts to shed light on some of the underlying problems that are specific to these atypical malpractice cases, to present with critical commentary a ‘wrongful life’ case from Romania, as well as to depict some solutions elaborated by philosophers or legal scholars. Finally, as novelty, in line with Benatar’s distinction between present-life and future-life cases, this short paper proposes thresholds for the admissibility of ‘wrongful life’ cases.
