One Step Forward, Two Steps Back : A minor field study of women in Nicaragua's perception of the law which criminalizes therapeutic abortionSellberg, Johanna January 2012 (has links)
This master's thesis is based on a Minor Field Study (MFS) and conducted in Nicaragua during seven weeks in the spring of 2011. Nicaragua has since 2006 been given international attention due to the National Assembly's decision to criminalize the previously allowed therapeutic abortion. The procedure could be used by women whose pregnancies turned out to be life threatening is now considered illegal and can result in years of imprisonment, both for women and doctors.This study focus upon the perception and opinions regarding this law among women living in Nicaragua. Distinction was made between women living in rural and urban settings. Further, women employed within organizations were chosen as a final group of interest. The aim of the study has been to explore if these women's perception have resulted in different levels of frustration and further how this variation in frustration can be explained. The study is mainly based on interviews conducted with these three groups of women. Relative deprivation was used as an analytical framework in order to explain how women's frustration could vary.It can be concluded that there were large differences in women's awareness and knowledge of the law and rural women appeared to have a rather small perceived frustration. The deprivation increased among women in urban areas, but became most intense among women active within organizations. The study has shown that religiosity, awareness and information about the law and its consequences, organization activity and to some extent level of education have the possibilities of affecting the level of frustration. The present frustration towards the law which criminalize therapeutic abortion is however not sufficient to cause collective violence or a similar reaction.

DIRECTING THE ABORTION DEBATEBingeman, Emily 15 August 2011 (has links)
Arguments in the debate over abortion can, for the most part, be categorized as aiming to provide an answer to one of two questions: “Is abortion Immoral?”, and “Should abortion be legal?” I will argue that those wishing to make arguments in support of the Pro-Choice position ought to focus on providing an answer to the legal question rather than the moral one. I will argue for two claims in support of this thesis, first, that the current state of the debate over the answer to the moral question is one of reasonable disagreement; second, if we accept David Boonin’s methodology of appealing to one’s opponent on terms that she is likely to accept, then it makes sense for the Pro-Choicer to focus on answering the legal question.

A multivariate analysis of attitudes toward abortion : U.S., 1972-1977Popplewell, Christine M. January 1978 (has links)
This-thesis has examined abortion attitudes and trends during the 1972 through 1977 time span using such independent variables as age, sex, race, education, religious membership frequency of church attendance and• survey date. Log-linear techniques were employed to test the magnitude and nature of the effects of these independent variables on the dependent variable (abortion attitude).Data which was drawn from the General Social Survey (GSS) indicate the abortion attitudes held by the American public became more favorable immediately following the Supreme Court decision in 1973 and thereafter a plateauing effect of support occurred.Further statistical examination of the data shows that age, sex, and religious denomination are not significantly related to attitudes toward abortion and only small effects are noted for race and survey date. However, the two most important variables with the strongest impace on abortion attitudes are frequency of church attendance and educational attainment.
