The objective of the present study consists of the juridic-anthropological analysis of the infanticide, a phenomenon that nowadays is highly existent within the context of crime-settings. Particular consideration has been given to the legal developments of the infanticide act, which occurred simultaneously with the mutation of the socio-cultural contexts. Because the legislative process of the infanticide act has not evolved since 1981, it was possible to underline the criticisms and the inadequacy of such norm. Indeed, the legal norm has not always been able to provide an exhaustive answer concerning cases of infanticide. The process of humanisation of the law led to the introduction of a legal system, which describes the infanticide act as a condition of material and moral abandonment. This has become uncertain and ambiguous to interpret, risking to relegate the legislative matters of infanticide only to exceptional cases. The current study aims to highlight the criticisms and hypothesised different reform perspectives.
本研究的目的在于对杀婴行为进行法理学 - 人类学分析，杀婴是当今犯罪背景下极为普遍的现象。特别关注了杀婴行为相关法律的发展，其与社会文化背景的变化同步发生。由于自1981年以来杀婴行为的立法进程未曾演变，因此可以强调该规范的批评意见及其不足之处。事实上，法律规范并非总能对杀婴案件给出详尽的答案。法律的人性化进程导致引入了一种法律制度，该制度将杀婴行为描述为物质和道德遗弃的一种情形。这在解释上变得不确定且模糊，有可能将杀婴的立法事项仅归结为特殊情况。当前的研究旨在突出批评意见并设想不同的改革视角。
