A group of prominent Chinese scholars issued an open letter on Thursday calling for a rethink of the country's one-child policy, the second high-profile challenge to the long-standing law this week.
数名中国知名学者周四联名发表公开信,要求政府重新考虑中国的独生子女政策,这是中国长期实行的计划生育政策本周第二次受到公然挑战。
The group argued that the policy in its current form is incompatible with China's increasing respect for human rights and need for sustainable economic development. The letter comes less than a month after the story of a woman who was forced to undergo an abortion of her seven-month-old fetus ignited public anger.
这些学者认为,目前的政策与中国人权意识的普遍增强和经济可持续发展的需要不符。此前不到一个月,中国一名怀孕七个月的妇女被强制引产的事件引发了公众的愤怒。
"The birth-approval system built on the idea of controlling population size as emphasized in the current Population and Family Planning Law does not accord with provisions on the protection of human rights contained in the nation's constitution," the authors of Thursday's letter wrote, adding that a rewriting of the law was "imperative."
周四发表的公开信中写道,现行《人口与计划生育法》强调控制人口数量,在此基础上构建的生育审批制度既不符合我国宪法中的人权保护条款。他们还说,《人口与计划生育法》的修改势在必行。
