Departurism

Departurism[1][2][3] is an anti-abortion libertarian approach to the reproductive rights controversy developed by American philosopher Sean Parr which argues, contrary to evictionism,[4] that the lethal removal of an unwanted fetus ought to be legally impermissible (except in cases where the pregnancy jeopardizes the life of the mother).[5]

  5. ^ See Parr 2020, 67:"The degree of severity necessary in the treatment of a fetus (wanted or unwanted) whose occupation of the womb seriously endangers the life of the mother would be more than is appropriate, nay, more than is compatible with libertarianism, in dealing with a fetus whose occupation represents a mere trespass."
