The History of Conscientious Objection and the Normalization of Universal Male Conscription in South Korean SocietyJung, Youngoh 18 March 2014 (has links)
This thesis traces the history of Conscientious Objection and draft evasion from the introduction of the Universal Male Conscription system in 1949 to the end of the authoritarian dictatorship period in 1993. I especially focus on the persecution and stigmatization of religious Conscientious Objector groups such as the South Korean Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Seventh-day Adventists. The negative labeling of these Conscientious Objectors as social deviants is part of an initiative led by the South Korean state to solidify Universal Male Conscription as a social norm. This process was supported by the implementation of a national surveillance system as well as the intensification of a nation-wide crackdown on draft evasion, which was viewed indifferently from Conscientious Objection. Thus, this project reveals the ostracization of Conscientious Objection as well as the normalization of Universal Male Conscription as an interconnected issue that came to be perpetuated throughout South Korean History.

Conscientious objectors to a medical treatment - what are the rules?Carbonneau, André, 1952- January 1999 (has links)
Patients who refuse a specific medical treatment for religious reasons must often overcome strongly entrenched presumptions held by physicians and judges, presumptions frequently based on personal values. A case in point is the refusal of blood transfusion therapy by Jehovah's Witnesses. / This paper rests on the following theory: The sanctity of life principle is not necessarily violated by respecting the autonomous decision of a patient who, for religious or moral reasons, chooses one therapy over another that may be favored by the treating physician. Where a patient has decided for conscientious reasons against a certain treatment in any given medical situation, the need to be informed will shift from the patient to the physician. The physician must understand the nature of the religious or moral conviction, as well as his own moral and legal obligation to respect the patient's wishes by providing the best medical care under the circumstances.

From Eve to Jezebel :Hughes, Miriam. Unknown Date (has links)
This study adds significantly to the literature on Christian fundamentalism, and specifically to understandings of how women are positioned within these faiths. It also provides an unusual glimpse into the inner world of Jehovah's Witnesses, and more specifically into the lived experiences of female adherents, a perspective which has been lacking in the small number of studies conducted into the faith. / By taking a sociological approach to the research, the Witnesses can be seen to occupy a unique position within Christian fundamentalism, an understanding which is crucial given their strong emphasis on the control of women. It is this emphasis on controlling women through the social structures of the faith that makes both joining and leaving the Witnesses such fraught processes, as is illuminated by the narratives of the female research participants. / Thesis (PhDEducation)--University of South Australia, 2006.

Utilizing Bloodless Medicine to Decrease Infection Rates in Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: A Literature ReviewSaint Fort, Samantha 01 January 2023 (has links) (PDF)
Aim: To determine if a significant relationship exists between bloodless medicine practices and decreased infection rates in oncology patients following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation by performing a literature review.
Background: It is not uncommon for healthcare professionals to encounter Jehovah's Witnesses (JW) seeking medical treatment in the acute care hospital setting and outpatient clinics alike. However, JW's pose a unique challenge to healthcare providers. Their refusal of blood transfusions makes them a population of interest within the medical community. The refusal of blood transfusions also poses a serious challenge to successful treatment in oncology JW patients, and many hospitals will refuse to perform a procedure as complex yet beneficial as a hematopoietic stem cell transplant in this population.
Methods: An extensive electronic literature search in the CINAHL Plus database was completed and included the keywords infection, blood transfusion, stem cell transplant, bloodless medicine, Jehovah's Witnesses, and transfusion reactions. The available literature was carefully examined for interventions performed and compared for ultimate results to be finalized as a written report.
Significance: The results of this research can not only optimize healthcare for the population of Jehovah's Witnesses, but also assist in reduced blood transfusions and improved cost management in all patients with a cancer diagnosis.
Conclusions: All studies concluded that autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can be performed safely without the use of blood products. Their conclusion was based off of the data they collected following patients post-stem cell transplant. More research is needed to explore outcomes in this population as a result of blood transfusion refusal following stem cell transplantation in comparison with those who receive blood transfusion support.

Religious Freedom of Jehovah's WitnessesMeadows, E. H. 06 1900 (has links)
The author has tried to show in this study the broad applications laid down by the Supreme Court in its decisions dealing with Jehovah's Witnesses. The tolerance used by the Supreme Court in working out the immense problems created by this sect at such a critical period, shows how tolerance builds strength rather than lessens it.
