Abortion Rights Backlash

The Struggle for Democracy in Europe and the Americas

Beschreibung

In Abortion Rights Backlash, Alison Brysk adopts a global feminist perspective to show how threats to reproductive rights stem from a patriarchal political struggle over declining democracy, national identity, and widening inequality due to globalization. Tracing the diverging experiences of the politics of abortion in six cases across Europe and the Americas, Abortion Rights Backlash transforms our understanding of human rights, the future of democracy, and the struggle for gender justice worldwide.
