The New Politics of Abortion, Hardback Book

The New Politics of Abortion Hardback

Edited by Joni Lovenduski, Joyce Outshoorn

Part of the Sage Modern Politics Series series

Hardback

Description

The New Politics of Abortion compares the reactions of eight Western political systems to demands for abortion legislation.

The abortion issue is not easily integrated into party doctrines and consequently has been marginalized except where effective pressure groups have intervened.

Examining the experience of Europe and the US in the last two decades, the contributors draw the surprising conclusion that the effect of abortion legislation has in many respects been minimal.

The availability of abortion is ultimately dependent less on the law than on the existence of good medical facilities.
