Abstract

The subject of my paper is some reflections about morally and socially controversial cases such as abortion, euthanasia, pornography, prostitution, homosexual couples, cloning, human fertilization, some aspects of borderlines of law and medicine, bioethics, professional ethics, some institutions of family law (polygamy, bigamy, duties during and after marriage), etc., and, of course, legal regulations concerning them. Prima facie, laws concerning morally and socially controversial phenomena are “morally controversial legal regulations.”

Keywords: law, morality, controversies
