Toward abortion decriminalization: Irish abortion activism and the power of legal ambivalence
Abortion Anarchy? The Case for Abortion Decriminalization
For most of the last 35 years, Canada has stood alone as a global exception to the criminalization of abortion. Following the 1988 Supreme Court decision in R. v.
