The Supreme Court, Liberty, And Abortion, George J. Annas Jan 1992

The Supreme Court, Liberty, And Abortion, George J. Annas

Faculty Scholarship

Abortion has aroused intense personal and political passions for almost two decades in the United States, and demeaning sloganeering has long substituted for reasoned discourse. Just as few people have actually read the 1973 ruling in Roe v. Wade, few people who have expressed their opinion on the Supreme Court's ruling in Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania v. Casey, which has been condemned by activists on both sides of the debate about abortion rights, have read it.

Rewriting Roe V. Wade, Donald H. Regan Jan 1980

Rewriting Roe V. Wade, Donald H. Regan

Book Chapters

Roe v. Wade is one of the most controversial cases the Supreme Court has decided. The result in the case — the establishment of a constitutional right to abortion — was controversial enough. Beyond that, even people who approve of the result have been dissatisfied with the Court's opinion. Others before me have attempted to explain how a better opinion could have been written. It seems to me, however, that the most promising argument in support of the result of Roe has not yet been made. This essay contains my suggestions for ""rewriting" Roe v. Wade.
