Zusammenfassung: | Hardly a day passes without newspaper coverage of some new development regarding prenatal life. The abortion debate continues to rage, but other examples abound: forced Cesareans; prosecutions of women for drug use during pregnancy; fetal protection policies; the use of fetal tissue for transplantation; embryo research; and the disposition of frozen embryos. All of these issues raise the question of the moral status of the unborn: are embryos and fetuses part of the pregnant woman or are they persons? Are they sources of tissue, research tools, or are they preborn children? Different conceptions of the unborn prevail in different contexts, giving rise to the charge of inconsistency. For example, women have been criminally charged with abusing their fetuses by using drugs during pregnancy, even though abortion--which pro-lifers call the ultimate child abuse--is legal The legalization of abortion itself was based in part on the unborn's never having been recognized in law as a full legal person. Yet fetuses have been considered as persons for the purposes of insurance coverage, wrongful death suits, and vehicular homicide. This book provides a framework for thinking clearly and coherently about the unborn. The first chapter elaborates the book's basic idea, that all and only beings who have interests have moral standing, and only beings who possess conscious awareness have interests. This thesis, which is called "the interest view," raises issues of considerable philosophical complexity, but is presented in language non-philosophers will be able to understand Subsequent chapters apply the interest view, and explore the moral and legal aspects of a wide range of issues, including abortion, the legal status of the fetus outside abortion, maternal-fetal conflict, fetal research, and the use and disposition of extracorporeal embryos resulting from the new reproductive technologies. The philosophical discussion is enlivened by examples and actual cases which immediately catch, and sustain, the reader's interest. Written in a lively style, Life Before Birth: The Moral and Legal State of Embryos and Fetuses is a timely and important work that enables us to resolve contradictions in our current thinking about the unborn, and to approach new issues in a clear and rational manner |

spelling | Steinbock, Bonnie Verfasser aut Life before birth the moral and legal status of embryos and fetuses Bonnie Steinbock New York [u.a.] Oxford Univ. Press 1992 X, 256 S. txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier Hardly a day passes without newspaper coverage of some new development regarding prenatal life. The abortion debate continues to rage, but other examples abound: forced Cesareans; prosecutions of women for drug use during pregnancy; fetal protection policies; the use of fetal tissue for transplantation; embryo research; and the disposition of frozen embryos. All of these issues raise the question of the moral status of the unborn: are embryos and fetuses part of the pregnant woman or are they persons? Are they sources of tissue, research tools, or are they preborn children? Different conceptions of the unborn prevail in different contexts, giving rise to the charge of inconsistency. For example, women have been criminally charged with abusing their fetuses by using drugs during pregnancy, even though abortion--which pro-lifers call the ultimate child abuse--is legal The legalization of abortion itself was based in part on the unborn's never having been recognized in law as a full legal person. Yet fetuses have been considered as persons for the purposes of insurance coverage, wrongful death suits, and vehicular homicide. This book provides a framework for thinking clearly and coherently about the unborn. The first chapter elaborates the book's basic idea, that all and only beings who have interests have moral standing, and only beings who possess conscious awareness have interests. This thesis, which is called "the interest view," raises issues of considerable philosophical complexity, but is presented in language non-philosophers will be able to understand Subsequent chapters apply the interest view, and explore the moral and legal aspects of a wide range of issues, including abortion, the legal status of the fetus outside abortion, maternal-fetal conflict, fetal research, and the use and disposition of extracorporeal embryos resulting from the new reproductive technologies. The philosophical discussion is enlivened by examples and actual cases which immediately catch, and sustain, the reader's interest. Written in a lively style, Life Before Birth: The Moral and Legal State of Embryos and Fetuses is a timely and important work that enables us to resolve contradictions in our current thinking about the unborn, and to approach new issues in a clear and rational manner Avortement - Aspect moral Avortement - Droit Embryo's gtt Ethische aspecten gtt Ftus - Droit Ftus - Recherche - Aspect moral Soins prénatals - Aspect moral Ethik Recht Abortion Law and legislation Abortion Moral and ethical aspects Abortion, Legal Legislation Ethics, Medical Legislation Fetus Legislation Fetus Legal status, laws, etc Fetus Research Moral and ethical aspects Morals Legislation Prenatal Care Legislation Prenatal care Law and legislation Prenatal care Moral and ethical aspects Medizinische Ethik (DE-588)4074672-0 gnd rswk-swf Ungeborenes (DE-588)4078545-2 gnd rswk-swf Rechtsstellung (DE-588)4134078-4 gnd rswk-swf Fetus (DE-588)4016957-1 gnd rswk-swf Strafrecht (DE-588)4057795-8 gnd rswk-swf Rechtsschutz (DE-588)4048835-4 gnd rswk-swf Recht (DE-588)4048737-4 gnd rswk-swf Recht auf Leben (DE-588)4133884-4 gnd rswk-swf Ethik (DE-588)4015602-3 gnd rswk-swf Reproduktionsmedizin (DE-588)4197011-1 gnd rswk-swf Schwangerschaftsabbruch (DE-588)4053732-8 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Ungeborenes (DE-588)4078545-2 s Recht (DE-588)4048737-4 s DE-604 Schwangerschaftsabbruch (DE-588)4053732-8 s Strafrecht (DE-588)4057795-8 s Rechtsstellung (DE-588)4134078-4 s Fetus (DE-588)4016957-1 s Recht auf Leben (DE-588)4133884-4 s 1\p DE-604 Reproduktionsmedizin (DE-588)4197011-1 s Medizinische Ethik (DE-588)4074672-0 s 2\p DE-604 3\p DE-604 Ethik (DE-588)4015602-3 s 4\p DE-604 Rechtsschutz (DE-588)4048835-4 s 5\p DE-604 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 5\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
