Abstract

Among its guarantees of physical and mental well-being, a just and healthy society provides its people self-determination in reproduction. For women, control over reproduction is key to attaining well-being and equality with men, but the United States falls woefully below that ideal today, and the flashpoint of struggle for improvement is the availability of induced abortion. Despite the commonality of abortion in today’s America – at least one in four women will have had one in her lifetime (Jones & Jerman, 2017) – arguments about the procedure are as bitter as ever, and an ideological fog obscures crucial facts and concepts concerning abortion’s significance for women and their families.
