Una clasificación de las teorías éticas sobre el aborto.David Alvargonzález - 2023 - Pensamiento 79 (303):493-516.details En este artículo presento una clasificación de las teorías éticas acerca del aborto provocado. En esa clasificación utilizo dos criterios que, aunque inseparables, se pueden tratar relativamente disociados uno del otro. En primer lugar, presento las teorías ordenadas según el estatuto ontológico y ético que otorgan a los gametos, cigotos, preembriones, embriones, fetos y neonatos, y discuto las teorías basadas en la idea de potencialidad. En segundo lugar, me refiero a las teorías centradas en la libertad de la madre. En (...) Download Export citation Bookmark
Is there a 'new ethics of abortion'?Raanan Gillon - 2001 - Journal of Medical Ethics 27 (suppl 2):5-9.details This paper argues that the central issue in the abortion debate has not changed since 1967 when the English parliament enacted the Abortion Act. That central issue concerns the moral status of the human fetus.

What if Medea had still been carrying her two children, perhaps due to give birth within a week or so, and had done the same? If this would also have been morally reprehensible, would that be a judgment based on her motives or on her action? We argue that the act has multiple and holistic moral features and that, (...)

The disposal of the aborted fetus--new guidelines: ethical considerations in the debate in Sweden.K. Kallenberg, L. Forslin & O. Westerborn - 1993 - Journal of Medical Ethics 19 (1):32-36.details During the 70s and 80s ethical debate concerning the fetus became intensive. The great advances made in medical technology and research and improvements in prenatal diagnosis as well as in embryological research have led us to believe that the fetus is an individual with recognised claims to protection. In Sweden the aborted fetus has previously been considered merely as a risk-disposal problem, equivalent to dangerous and infected material and there have been no specific guidelines for the treatment of the fetus (...)
