Abstract

Focusing on the political image of the fetus is working on land that is crossed by ethical discourses, readings genetic and political positions. This text questions from the aesthetics of photography, feminist theory and genetic studies, what the images show fetuses displayed on screens worldwide reproduced and ethical responses to these “scans” would have on the onlooker. It develops, in turn an analysis of fetal erythroblastosis comprising scientific contexts/social that led to the enunciation of this condition, re-reading her the principles of Ontogeny and Phylogeny Ernest Haeckel introduced in the nineteenth century. This paper addresses the political image of the fetus, social assessments and readings that carries genetic intertwine throughout biological discourse. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
