The Evolution of Abortion Law in Nineteenth Century America, with Special Reference to Michigan

Abstract

vi, 124 p.My goal for this project is to attempt to sort out the conflicting portrayals of abortion law history. Particularly, I intend to examine the first revolution in abortion law which occurred primarily in the 1870's. Hopefully, this paper will shed light on how and why this first revolution occurred.If you are not a current K College student, faculty, or staff member, email [email protected] to request access to this SIP.Preface -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- Western Traditions and Early America -- Abortion and the Abortion Industry in Nineteenth Century America -- The Organization of the Medical Community and the Legal Backlash -- Conclusion -- Appendix A -- Note
