Overview
What you will learn
The Circumcision, Abortion, Compulsory Vaccination - Philosophy of Bodily Integrity course offered by University of Oxford will explore the following questions:
- Do we have the right to cut or modify a child’s genitals for religious or cultural reasons (for example, through penile circumcision or ‘ritual nicking’ of the vulva)?
- Should teenagers be allowed to alter their bodies through tattoos, piercing or cosmetic surgeries?
- When, if ever, are doctors justified in medically treating or vaccinating people against their will, or, if children, the will of their parents?
- Can governments legitimately limit the right to abortion?
The speakers are two leading researchers in the field, having lectured internationally and published peer-reviewed articles on these and related topics in top bioethics journals.
