Resumen
MAIER, Elizabeth. Libertades restringidas: el aborto y el ocaso de la libertad de decisión en Estados Unidos. Región y sociedad [online]. 2016, vol.28, n.66, pp.23-53. ISSN 2448-4849.
In this article I examine recent events in the contemporary conflict over abortion in the United States. I frame today's cultural dispute over abortion within the confines of a particular historical and structural context of transition between two distinct capitalist models: the era of industrial modernity and postindustrial, neoliberal globalization. In the article I explore the judicial history of abortion in the United States, while analyzing the content of representative discourses, and highlight demands of contending collective actors. Finally, I review new legislation that has limited access to legal abortion for economically vulnerable women in many states, evaluating its impact on women's lives and implications for the future.
