Abstract
Starting from the attitudes of different historical periods and countries towards the right to fetal life, this article focuses on analyzing the conflict and reconciliation between the right to fetal life and women’s right to abortion. At the same time, this article also compares the different provisions on the determination of fetal life in legislation of countries such as the United States, Germany, and China, and analyzes the different manifestations of the conflict between the right to fetal life and women’s abortion rights within and outside the region. Finally, based on the current conflict situation, root causes, and excellent practices abroad, some suggestions are proposed for abortion legislation in China.
