Content: 6] Different arguments of these two groups, on violation of right, are addressed in this chapter. II. Abortion and Right of fetus
Roe v. Wade [ 7] ‘s granting of constitutional protection for the right to terminate an unwanted pregnancy was, in many ways, just the beginning of the true abortion rights debate. The rights of the unborn are a main issue in this debate–mainly whether they have rights as a human person that could protect their lives from ending before birth. While the Court has since declined to officially and fully address the issue, there is a growing recognition of the personhood of the unborn child both from a medical and social standpoint. Fetal rights are the legal or ethical rights of fetuses. In the context of abortion debates, fetal right is used as an argument in support of pro-life stand. The term Pro-life deals with the political and ethical opposition to the system of abortion, and asks for the legal prohibition or restriction of the same. The main claim of these pro-life movements is that fetus is a person. Therefore a fetus has a right to life.
