This article explores how agreements to preferentially save can ground an exception to the duty to minimize harm when saving. A rescuer preferentially saves if she knowingly fails to minimize harm among prospective victims, even though minimizing harm would not have imposed greater costs on the rescuer herself. Allowing rescuers to act on agreements to preferentially save is justified by the reasons we have to respect the agreements that agents form as a means of pursuing their own ends.

如果你是我的保镖：拯救协议和最小化伤害的责任

本文探讨了优先储蓄的协议如何可以将储蓄时损害最小化的义务作为例外。如果救助者故意未能将潜在受害者的伤害降至最低，那么救助者会优先进行救助，即使将伤害降至最低不会给救助者自身带来更大的成本。允许救援人员根据协议采取行动优先拯救是合理的，因为我们必须尊重代理人作为追求自己目标的手段而形成的协议。
