概要
Taiwan's Advance Care Planning (ACP) is part of the Patient’s Right to Autonomy Act (PRAA), officially implemented in 2019, and requires that anyone recording their wishes must be accompanied by a family member. This article explores the laws enacted by the e Hospice Palliative Care Act (HPCA/also known as the Natural Death Act which was implemented in 2000) and the subsequent PRAA in Taiwan and examines the influence of familism on these Acts. As a Taiwanese living in Japan for many years, the author would like to investigate this topic from an emic approach, i.e. an insider’s cultural perspective. Studies based on specific cultures, such as research into a particular kind of ACP suitable for the Japanese culture and environment, should be encouraged.
