Sažetak

This paper analyzes the history of abortion and factors that influenced the legalization of abortion in Western society. The question is raised whether abortion should, according to its definition as an objective good or evil, be prohibited or legitimized, or will the legal framework on abortion be regulated as a political construct, independently of the objective moral nature of abortion. The possibility of finding the right answer to the abortion debate is analysed. Conclusion is drawn as to whether abortion can be justified by a political goal, or is it a moral issue independent of politics.
