Morality and Support in Judith Jarvis Thomson's Essay, A Defense of Abortion

In this article I will explain and examine Judith Jarvis Thomson's view on abortion, as explained in her article "Defense of Abortion". I summarize her view on this subject and then criticize and support her argument and the analogies she contains. First, we resolve Thomson's decision to assume that the fetus is a pregnant. I think it wisely to mark the fetus as a person during pregnancy. Because this decision precludes controversy over abortion ethics.

In Judith Jarvis Thomson's 'Defense of abortion' article 'Abortion Defense', Judith Jarvis Thomson claims that abortion is morally acceptable even if the fetus is treated as a person. This article details Thomson's main argument about abortion in detail. In particular, I carefully study her renowned "violinist" claim. - Silent Madness He wants to know if he is crazy. He covered my ears with both hands but still I heard a garbled sound in the room. He sat back behind the desk for a while, stopped breathing and told myself he was just tired. Suddenly knocking on the door, his heart skipped the beat and opened it with trembling hands. "Hello!" His reception desk joked and saw him irritated as he almost jumped out of his skin.

Judith Jarvis Thomson is interesting in her groundbreaking article "The Abort of Abortion" (1971), indicating that even though the fetus has the right to survive, it can prove the reason for abortion because the right of women is right I announced a case. . Life / Integrity / Privacy The famous example of Thomson is a sick violinist. You woke up in the morning and found that you were kidnapped by a community of music enthusiasts and are helping violinists who can not live on their own because of poor physical condition. He sticks to your kidney as you have the only blood type that will keep him alive. As a violinist has the right to live by being human, you face an ethical dilemma; it seems impossible to kill him without killing him without infringing on this right. But if you make him fall in love with you, even if you do not give him such a right, you can not move for a few months (Thomson 1984, 174-175 ).
