Philosophical, scientific and pragmatic critical approach of post-birth abortion

Abstract

"Infanticide was named post-birth abortion in an article published in 2012. Despite raising many reactions in the academia and in the media, there is still the need to do a wide and specific dialectical critique, considering its scientific, philosophical and pragmatic aspects, inserting it into the concrete reality. Through this critique, it can be concluded that the article has serious scientific, philosophical and pragmatic limitations, disregarding the complexity of reality and the broad scope of the “person” concept. The claims of the article are poorly substantiated, and its conclusions are based on artificial and fragile assumptions."
