Abstract

Čedomorstvo je ubojstvo vlastitog, tek rođenog djeteta od strane majke koja je pod jakim duševnim opterećenjem zbog trudnoće ili poroda. Kroz povijest su se mijenjala pravna stajališta, a danas se smatra privilegiranim oblikom ubojstva. Nije poznat jedinstven uzrok, ali etiologija upućuje na spregu bioloških, psiholoških i socijalnih činitelja. Glavni faktori rizika uključuju poricanje ili prikrivanje trudnoće te izostanak prenatalne skrbi. Dokazana je i povezanost s traumama iz djetinjstva, socioekonomskim statusom i psihološkim karakteristikama počiniteljice. U Republici Hrvatskoj je zabilježen trend pada, no pretpostavlja se visoka tamna brojka čedomorstva, stoga postoji potreba za intenzivnijom prevencijom. Rad se kritički osvrće na zakonodavna rješenja i preventivne strategije povezujući kaznenopravnu i psihološku perspektivu.

Abstract (english)

Neonaticide is the killing of a newborn by it's own mother who is mentally overwhelmed by pregnancy or delivery. Legal views changed through the past and today neonaticide considers as priviledged type of homicide. Cause is not known, but etiology brings up combination of biological, psychological and social aspects. The main risk factors include denial or concealment of pregnancy and absence of prenatal care. There is correlation with childhood trauma, socioeconomic status and psychological characteristics of the perpetrator. In Croatia there is downward trend, but dark figure of crime is assumed so there is need for more intensive prevention. This work is critically reviewing legislative solutions and preventive strategies by connecting jurisdictional and psychological perspectives.
