| چکیده | ||
| Recent ethical and legal developments concerning fetal health have shifted attention away from traditional individual-centered models toward broader notions of collective ethics and institutional responsibility. While individual ethics primarily assigns duties to the pregnant woman or the physician, a collective-ethics framework redistributes responsibility across policy-making institutions, healthcare systems, and social structures. This study seeks to clarify the foundations, dimensions, and necessity of this transition and to assess its implications for defining institutional obligations toward fetal well-being. Using a descriptive–analytical design and library-based sources, the study reviews key discussions in bioethics and the philosophy of responsibility to articulate the core principles of collective ethics and its place in maternal–fetal health policy. It then examines the roles of major stakeholders—government and legislative bodies, healthcare organizations, and research and cultural institutions—in light of these principles. Findings indicate that fetal health is not merely the outcome of an individual’s actions but is shaped by systematic interactions among institutional, social, economic, and cultural determinants. Accordingly, implementing collective ethics requires coordinated action among sectors responsible for healthcare, legislation, economic support, education, and media. This approach highlights the need for just policymaking, professional ethics training, public culture-building, social supports for pregnant women, and multi-level ethical oversight. Overall, the shift from individual to collective ethics is presented as a strategic requirement of contemporary bioethics, enabling preventive, equitable, and humane policies aligned with the broader public interest and the dignity of both fetus and mother. | ||
