Abstract

The issue of abortion has been a matter of long-standing philosophical debate. With the overturning of Roe v. Wade by the US Federal Supreme Court, the certainty of a legal solution to the issue has been further eroded, while provoking more intense debate. Based on Isaiah Berlins value pluralism, this article analyses the various perspectives on abortion, arguing that the construction of a one-and-done doctrine should be abandoned, while revealing that no harm to the innocent should be a foundational value in the abortion issue, suggesting that women have an absolute right to abortion at any stage of their lives. The right to abortion is not an absolute right at any stage of a womans life. It is a legal right that should be reasonably limited in order to achieve a relatively good legal solution.
