From the Paper
"The legalization of abortion in the United States by a decision of the Supreme Court which bypassed the legislative process in the majority of states, has since its inception, been both praised and cursed. There is a tendency to believe that perspectives of abortion line upon one side or the other one is either pro-life' or pro-choice' and never the twain shall meet. However, the fact is that people are not that black and white in their approach to abortion ... "

Abstract
This paper looks at how two polarized camps have emerged within the abortion debate, one (the liberal camp) fervently in favor of abortion and the other (the conservative camp) heatedly opposed. In particular, it looks at how in his important work, "Abortion and Moral Theory", L.W. Sumner takes an essentially utilitarian approach towards the subject whereas philosophers such as Earl Winkler and Barry Hoffmaster have applied serious and important criticisms to applied ethics in general and to utilitarian arguments in particular. The paper argues that despite Sumner's best efforts, applied ethics systems such as utilitarianism cannot resolve the important issues in abortion. It concludes that it is necessary to follow the advice of Hoffmaster, who recommends that we move away from theory-driven applied ethics, and instead move to a morality that is understood contextually.
From the Paper
"It is argued that there is no area of applied ethics that highlights more starkly the pitfalls inherent in applied ethics than the area of abortion. This is because there is no other area in which two human lives (with their associated rights and/or duties) are so closely intertwined. The foetus is parasitically dependent on the woman for life itself. The woman's right to autonomy is inevitably intertwined with considerations of her duties towards others, such as the foetus (primarily) and the father of the foetus (as a distant second). "

Abstract
This paper explores the issue of abortion, primarily as it relates to American women, from the unusual vantage point of obstetrical and gynecological nurses. As the author argues, these medical practitioners may have the greatest contact with the subject. The paper begins with an overview and update on the legal actions and ramifications of abortion. Then the paper studies the moral and ethical values, as seen, felt and practiced by nurses.
From the Paper
"Perhaps not since the vituperative Civil Rights movement in the 1950s and '60s, when ideology turned ugly and caused deaths and injury, has any subject been as vehemently argued as the issue of Abortion. This issue is neither academic nor even, perhaps, objective. A woman faced with an unwanted pregnancy generally understands at some visceral level that there is human life inside her, making that question moot. The fact is that most people agree that abortion should be a rare procedure Abortion is, and likely will always be, fraught with emotional and physical turmoil. The turmoil has brought into focus not merely legal accountings for the (at least) legal approval of abortion (Roe vs. Wade in 1973) but has divided much of society into two sometimes armed and irrational camps.

"Jewish Perspectives on Abortion
Contemporary Judaism can be broken into three distinctive groups: Orthodox, Reformed, and Conservative. The formation of these three groups represent historical and social factions within the contemporary practice of the Jewish faith and its beliefs. In tandem, the variant positions adopted by these Orthodox, Reformed and Conservative branches reflect upon the status and treatment of women within Judaism. Further, scrutiny of these three groups's formal stands on abortion will reveal how Judaism theorizes about sexuality, procreation, family and marriage.
Sociological research indicates that "Jews support the availability of abortion in far greater numbers than members of any other religion." Simply stated, Orthodox Jews generally.."

Abstract
This paper examines various aspects of abortion and abortion law such as social and ethical concerns as well as the law, and more specifically concerned to that of women's rights.
From the paper:
"While medical science is making abortion much safer for the woman, the debates and the legal battles continue unabated. In the United States, the battles rage in the courts, the Congress and state legislatures. There have even been violent confrontations in the clinics where abortions are performed. There are people in favor of giving the woman the right to abort, and people who are not prepared to allow abortion except when it puts the life of the mother in danger. In between these two extreme positions, we have people taking intermediate positions."

Abstract
This paper examines the social conservative and social liberal perspectives on abortion and the right to life in the United States. In addition to examining the basic precepts of both camps, the paper also discusses some of the ways that the groups battle each other as well as some of the ways that the government has attempted to accommodate the views of both camps.
From the Paper
"Subject: Politics Conservative and Liberal Perspectives on Abortion & What the U.S. Government Is Doing About Them Few social issues are as enflamed as is the abortion and right to life issue in the United States. The schism that exists on this issue between social conservatives and social liberals is just about as wide as such divides can be on an issue. In essence, the issue can be reduced to differences in ideological perspective. The social conservatives (hereafter conservatives) believe that it is immoral to have an abortion."

Abstract
The social order of the United States has been in a continuous debate over the issue of abortion since the early 1800s. State and federal laws have affected the legal medical practice of abortions and the individuals on both sides of the issue within the health care profession. The Supreme Court in Roe v. Wade contended that laws relating to women's rights were unconstitutional. However, the court also stated that the issue of when life begins, to address ethical concerns about abortion, would ultimately have to be determined by those in "medicine, philosophy and theology". This paper considers the ongoing and controversial abortion debate, looking at different theological and ethical perspectives as well as the medical perspective on the topic.

Abstract
The paper begins by defining the anti-abortion position on abortion and then gives the statistics on the position of many countries regarding this issue. The pro-choice lobby is also cited and their views discussed. The body of the paper is based on the views on abortion in four countries: Brazil, China, France, and The United States. Each country has very different positions and laws regarding abortion and all are discussed in-depth. The paper concludes that each person must have a position on abortion. If abortion is wrong, then both mother and baby should be protected, unless it can be shown that one's life might be lost if the pregnancy were allowed to continue. If abortion is acceptable then the mother must be protected and society must understand that there is only one human in this equation.
From the Paper
"There are many people today who believe that abortion is wrong and bad. They recognize that medical science has long since proven conclusively that human life begins at fertilization. Accordingly, they cannot and do not deny that abortion is killing. Further, most also believe abortion is against God's will. But there different peoples and theirs different points of view, even countries have own position on this problem: 39% of the world's women live under restrictive abortion laws: 25% in parts of the world where abortion is permitted only to save a woman's life or is prohibited altogether, 10% where abortion is allowed only when it is necessary to protect a woman's physical health or her life, and 4% in places where abortion is permitted only for these reasons or to protect a woman's mental health."

Post-Abortion, 2005.
This paper discusses abortion, especially the post abortion period, from the aspects of the Christian church.
2,035 words (approx. 8.1 pages), 6 sources, MLA, £ 44.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that, in the view of the church, abortion is possibly one of the most vivid instances of a circumstance where something is legitimate in this contemporary period but is viewed as committing a sin against God. The author points out that the Church declares that the victims of abortion are both the woman and her child because the demise of a child is one of the severest moments of strain a person can bear in life; therefore post-abortion syndrome is the emotional trauma of not lamenting and not allowing oneself to experience the agony and suffering that goes with the bereavement. The paper states that the Law of God divulges the sin of both partners and they feel at fault and immense grief, the church controls individuals who persistently experience the saddle of the sin of abortion by repeatedly indicating them to the cross of their Lord Jesus.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"However, in case of some women, the strain post-abortion is linked with eating problems like overindulgence in eating, bulimia, and anorexia nervosa. Abortion is connected with greater depression, aggressive conduct, alcohol and drug abuse, and surrogate pregnancies, and lower maternal linkage with children who are born thereafter. These causes are strongly linked with child abuse and will seem to corroborate stray clinical evaluations connecting post-abortion pain with subsequent child abuse. It has been seen that post-abortion couples have increased chances of divorcing or undergoing separation. Several post-abortion women develop an increased problem forming long-term relationships with a male partner."

Abstract
In this article, the writer maintains that the subject of abortion requires exploration into multiple moral, social and religious values. The writer points out that some may argue that abortion also requires an exploration of political views and legal perspectives, as the concept and subject is often shaped by multiple dynamics including those in the political realm. This paper reviews the subject of abortion from a sociological standpoint, arguing that women should be allowed the right to an abortion. The writer concludes that a woman's right to an abortion should be upheld and that women should be afforded the opportunity to make the decision they feel is best for them and their family when it comes to their body and their privacy.

From the Paper
"The subject of abortion is one that has long been argued among politicians, sociologists, humanists and citizens. Controversial because it involves one's definitions of life and values as a human, the subject of abortion is one that legal analysts have reviewed over decades. Ultimately however, the subject of abortion is one that rests on a woman's right to privacy. As a woman's "right" to privacy is a right upheld by the law, one can only assume that a woman should be guaranteed that right under the law. Because abortion involves one's personal decisions affecting their bodies, it is important that sociologists, psychologists and legal analysts avoid applying political idealisms to the subject of abortion, and rather consider the subject of abortion based on value systems and beliefs."

From the Paper
"Though Abby rejects the application of the death penalty in all instances she does advocate the permissibility of abortion in the early stages. Despite the seeming contradiction of ethics or morals in these views, Abby's views on abortion and the death penalty are more congruent than they might initially appear. This is because abortion is part of a woman's overall reproductive rights guaranteed by law while the death penalty is often applied in a biased manner and represents state-sanctioned homicide..."

Abstract
This paper explores the controversial subject of abortion from the perspective of women's rights. The paper is written from a pro-choice perspective, and argues that the right to abortion is essentially a women's prerogative. This study explores the various arguments that support the right of women to choose for themselves. Relevant literature is cited including studies that pertain not only to American women but also women in developing nations. The author concludes that women's reproductive rights should be seen in the larger context of class, race and economic discrimination.

Abstract

From the Paper
"Reproductive rights, as the essential rights of women over their own bodies and sexuality, are not something separate from other issues relating to gender rights. One the central arguments put forward in this regard that it is the woman that must make this choice and not a society that is dominated by male views and prejudices. Considered in this larger context, the issue of abortion is seen in a more appropriate and rational way. "
