Description
Anthropologists report that infanticide is a culturally accepted practice in many societies. However, societies that practice infanticide have strict rules, about the circumstances under which it is acceptable. Infanticide is most often a culturally accepted practice among non-industrialized societies. Industrialized societies frown on infanticide; for most industrialized societies induced abortion is culturally accepted under certain circumstances. I will guide you through the similarities and differences in the circumstances that lead to the acceptance of infanticide in non-industrialized societies or the acceptance of abortion in an industrialized society.
