Rights, Duties and the Body: Law and Ethics of the Maternal-Fetal Conflict
Philosophical Review 113 (4):582-584 (2004)
Abstract
Suppose a woman chooses to carry a pregnancy to term. What duties should she be understood to have with respect to the fetus? If she is informed that a vaginal delivery will pose significant risks to its life or health, for example, is she obligated to submit to a caesarean section procedure on its behalf?Author's Profile
