Resumo
Nun brevísimo artigo, James Sterba sostén que existe un deber moral de sacrificar a propia vida para salvar a de terceiros. Sterba fundamenta ese deber trazando unha analogía cunha serie de casos nos que comunmente se aceptaría algún grao de sacrificio en beneficio de terceiros. No presente traballo, sosteño que o argumento formulado por Sterba chega á conclusión correcta, pero é invalido. Así mesmo, sinalo dous argumentos diferentes que poderían utilizarse para fundamentar a existencia dun deber de sacrificar a propia vida para salvar a de terceiros.
