Reviews
"This book makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the global politics of abortion, and to shaping our advocacy strategies. It shows how reproductive justice helps to bridge the gap between the Global North and South." Marlene Gerber Fried, Professor of Philosophy and Director, Hampshire College
"With clarity and an impressively wide reach, this book shows how abortion politics are shaped by local contexts but connected by broader, global contexts about morality, equality, control and reproductive freedom. An indispensable addition to the scholarship." Fiona de Londras, Law School, University of Birmingham
