[Theses on the ethics and legal ethics of abortion].
The author subjects the principal ethical and pragmatic arguments for the moral and legal rejection of abortion to critical scrutiny. He concludes that a prohibition of abortion can be justified neither by considerations of individual and social consequences nor by the standard arguments intended to show that abortion is intrinsically wrong as a form of killing specifically human life.
