Full Description
With Latin America home to some of the most draconian bans on abortion in the world, abortion rights is one of the most controversial and hotly contested topics in Latin American politics today. The author explores the ways in which key actors—from politicians to grassroots activists to the global community—participate and shape strategies in the ongoing debate. The author sheds new light on the dire situation of Latin American women facing unwanted pregnancies, and on the interactions between the state and its most vulnerable members of society.
