Abortion and Family Solidarity

UFL member, Richard Stith, has posted a new article, Anti-choice: When Having a Choice Diminishes Family Solidarity, on SSRN. Richard argues that the availability of abortion causes many family members to reject or reduce support for women who continue their pregnancies in difficult circumstances because “it is their choice.” He notes a similar effect when euthanasia or physician assisted suicide is available. Trained in both philosophy and law, Richard makes a compelling argument that, at least in some cases, having a choice actually reduces support for the choice of a particular woman in a particular case.
