Mehr zum Buch

Feminist social movements have significantly influenced abortion politics in Latin America over the past decade, leading to notable changes in reproductive rights. Countries like Argentina and Uruguay have legalized abortion in the first twelve weeks, while others, such as El Salvador and Honduras, maintain strict laws. The situation is further complicated in Mexico, where legality varies by state. This Element explores these dynamics and the varying degrees of progress and resistance across the region, highlighting the complex landscape of reproductive rights.
