The pleasure, joy and positive emotional experiences of abortion accompaniment after 17 weeks’ gestation
Research documents how abortion can be emotionally difficult and stigmatising, but generally has not considered whether and how involvement in abortion may be a source of positive emotions, including pleasure, belonging and even joy. The absence of explorations that start from the possibility of abortion pleasure and joy represents an epistemic foreclosure. Moreover, it highlights how social science literature has tended to emphasise the negative…
Ethics of Care Born in Intersectional Praxis
Abortion in the global South is highly restricted. The social, economic, and health problems engendered by this restriction are often relegated to the discipline of public health and considered a technical problem to be solved through policy change, international pressure, and Northern aid. In recent years, however, local activists around the world have responded to legal restrictions by counseling and supporting abortion seekers online, by phone…
Subversive Epidemiology in Abortion Care
Since the early 1990s, global treaties on maternal and reproductive health have obligated governments to ensure quality postabortion care: emergency obstetric care for women experiencing medical complications following abortion. While postabortion care is available in hospitals around the world, little is known about how this global model has been integrated into daily obstetric care in countries with restrictive abortion laws. Drawing on ethnogr…
Fetal Aspirations
This article analyzes the use of humor as a strategy for claims making and activist identity construction through visual production at face-to-face protests and Internet memes. Humorous visual images can serve multiple social movement purposes, including ridiculing and delegitimizing the opposition, neutralizing opponents’ claims, creating a fun and irreverent group identity, and fostering group cohesion through shared enjoyment. This article exp…
Doing Murga, Undoing Gender
Murga porteña, the satirical street theatre tradition associated with Carnival in Buenos Aires, Argentina, is historically a strongly patriarchal institution. Prominent roles such as reciting poetry, singing, and playing percussion instruments have been reserved exclusively for men. As the feminist movement in Argentina has grown in visibility and importance in recent years, feminist murga participants disrupted these patriarchal patterns. Women …
No Doctors Required
In Argentina, as in the rest of Latin America, abortion is illegal in most cases. But recently the advent of misoprostol, a pharmaceutical that can be used to induce abortion, has made safer abortion more accessible throughout the region. Local feminist activists are engaged in a direct-action campaign making information about misoprostol available to women who seek abortions. This activism builds on a long tradition of feminist organizing in the…
