Abstract
Stem cell has a prospective future in cells therapy.However,the harvesting of stem cells is a paradoxical issue.In fact.the essence of dispute on stem cell studies is a combat between utilitarianism and moralism.The point of view of Marx's Ethics about stem cell studies present dialectical harmony between utilitarianism and moralism.The development of an embryo is a developing process from cell mass to natural persons.but not social persons which have characteristics of sociality and consciousness.Embryo is not completely a person,so embryonic stem cell harvesting is consistent with Marx's Ethics.But the timing of harvesting stem cells and the way to deal with the embryo need further discussion. Key words: Embryonic stem cells; Philosophical characteristics of person; Marx's ethics
