    Consciousness and the moral permissibility of infantide
    (Видавництво Львівської політехніки, 2011) Tobia, Kevin
    In this paper I critique and amend Hassoun and Kriegel’s argument for the moral permissibility of infanticide. I argue that the original case is greatly strengthened by introducing temporal considerations. The argument is intended not to show the permissibility of infanticide, but rather that there are underlying problems in our understanding of either consciousness, morality or both.
