She argues that there is a widespread belief in American law and culture of “the rights-bearing person as fundamentally self-owning and autonomous.” But despite that, a truer definition of what it means to be a person is grounded in an understanding that we are all “dependent and needy.” By Bachiochi’s definition, a fetus is no less human for its reliance on its mother; its dependence, in fact, makes it all the more worthy of protection. “It is precisely the unborn child’s state of existential dependence upon its mother, not its autonomy, that makes it specially due care, nurture and legal protection too,” she writes.
