The Rhetoric on Reproductive Rights in "The Handmaids Tale" and in the Current Debates on Abortion in the United States

The thesis explores how Margaret Atwood's "The Handmaid's Tale" has evolved from a dystopian narrative into a poignant commentary on contemporary issues, particularly the debates surrounding reproductive rights in the U.S. The analysis highlights the impact of the Dobbs vs. Jackson Women’s Health Organization ruling, which overturned Roe v. Wade, drawing parallels between the novel's themes and current societal challenges. Atwood's work is positioned as a relevant lens through which to examine these critical discussions.
