Paper Summary:

It shows that if the embryo is considered a being then the controversy is not only a legal one, but also a moral and ethical one. The paper examines the concept of jurisprudence and how it applies to the stem cell controversy - where all parties involved approach the matter from a different corner.

From the Paper:

"In regards to the issue of stem cell research, groups from all four quadrants of jurisprudence have their own perspective. From such, each has begun a course of action that will inevitably have a hand in shaping the course of this difficult issue. In reverse order, the supporters of critical legal studies are most represented by the scientists, and those who financially back them. These men and women are pressing on into the work regardless of governmental regulation, or threats over financial assistance. Their view is that this research holds positive benefits for mankind, so it should progress to bring those benefits to the marketplace."
