Families Law And Society

Why have abortion laws been dismantled in some countries and fiercely contested in others?
Reading guide
This is the first volume in the Families Law And Society series, so it is the natural place to begin.
This is a scholarly study rather than a narrative. It moves through the legal and social frameworks around abortion access, comparing countries where barriers have been removed with those where they remain, and asking why reform has followed different paths in each place.

Description

Accessing Abortion is the first volume in the Families Law And Society series. It examines the legal and social frameworks surrounding reproductive healthcare and the barriers that shape whether patients can obtain treatment.

The book looks at the global landscape of abortion law reform. According to the publisher's blurb, legal, cultural and practical barriers have been removed in places including Mexico, Kenya, Thailand and Ireland, while obstacles remain numerous in countries such as the United States and Poland. The shop description notes that the volume analyses where law and public health meet and how policy decisions affect the availability of medical services. Regulating Conception is another title in the series.
