Intimate Compromise
Drawing on ethnographic findings from an American Orthodox Christian community, I examine how forms of intimate reproductive compromise facilitate the assertive refusal to negotiate on abortion.

By not giving up modern contraception, women self-fashion forms of piety that allow them…

I argue that, through an analysis of these…

Women backed up their rejection of participation in official reproductive care programmes by mentionin…
