- W3125710380 abstract "A critical analysis of posthumous conception African style (“PPAS”) and posthumous conception Western style (“PPWS”) reveals inconsistencies between the two practices and sheds light on similarities in practices across cultures and civilizations -- similarities that are seemingly ignored by international human rights bodies and human rights activists. Under PPAS, there are at least four ways in which a child can be conceived posthumously. A commonality among all four is that no genetic link exists between the dead man and any children attributable to him. PPAS has and continues to be used in many patrilineal African cultures in order to ensure societal stability. Over the years, Nigerian courts have concluded that the various customary practices relating to posthumous procreation are invalid and unenforceable under the repugnancy principle. However, a hasty application of international human rights law (“IHRL”) and the repugnancy test to PPAS could be problematic and ultimately counterproductive. PPAS creates many concerns with the children and women involved in the practice as well as overall public health. In contrast to PPAS, PPWS provides that the dead man is the genetic father of the any children attributable to him. PPWS is achieved through the cryopreservation of sperm and the subsequent artificial insemination of a woman. PPWS, like PPAS, also causes concerns related to children resulting from a posthumous conception. A comparative study of both ancient and modern practices of posthumous procreation shows many similarities between cultures and raises important questions about marriage, paternity, and mortality in both Africa and the West." @default.
