SAINT LOUIS UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF LAW PREIMPLANTATION GENETIC DIAGNOSIS: DISEASE CONTROL OR CHILD OBJECTIFICATION? I. INTRODUCTION With the advances in assisted reproduction technology (ART), parents now have more choices regarding how and when they start a family. In vitro fertilization (IVF) has been available for some time now as a way to help infertile individuals conceive. However, difficulty conceiving is not the only problem parents may encounter. Some may also face the probability of having a child afflicted with genetic disease. In the past, amniocentesis1 and chorionic villous sampling (CVS)2 were performed on fetuses to detect genetic disease or defects.

  • Sex and State Making in Revolutionary Cuba, 1959-1968
    SEX AND STATE MAKING IN REVOLUTIONARY CUBA, 1959-1968 Rachel M. Hynson A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2014 Approved By: Kathryn J. Burns Emily Susan Burrill John Charles Chasteen Miguel La Serna Raúl Necochea López Lars Schoultz ©2014 Rachel M. Hynson ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT RACHEL M. HYNSON: Sex and State Making in Revolutionary Cuba, 1959-1968 (Under the direction of Kathryn J. Burns) This dissertation explores the construction of the revolutionary state in order to trace the entwinement of familial health and national security during the first decade of the Cuban revolution. It analyzes campaigns deployed by government officials to remake sexual norms and produce families deemed healthier than those under capitalism. More specifically, my dissertation examines state efforts that normalized patriarchy by criminalizing abortion, legitimized marriage through collective weddings, schematized the workforce by condemning female prostitution, and restructured economic gender roles via the rehabilitation of chulos (loosely translated as “kept men”). Through close analysis of print media, speeches, travel narratives, and oral histories, my work makes two major contributions to the study of Cuban sexuality. First, by joining prerevolutionary context to an analysis of revolutionary policies, I demonstrate that the sexual behaviors lauded by state officials as new measures of revolutionary well-being were in fact traditional criteria recycled from prior Cuban regimes. Second, I assert that revolutionary leadership of the 1960s attempted to remake the state by challenging popular definitions of terms such as marriage, family planning, sex worker, and chulo.

  • Contraception and Induced Abortion in the West Indies: a Review AA Boersma 1, JGM De Bruijn 2
    Contraception and Induced Abortion in the West Indies: A Review AA Boersma 1, JGM de Bruijn 2 ABSTRACT Background: Most islands in the West Indies do not have liberal laws on abortion, nor laws on pregnancy prevention programmes (contraception ). We present results of a literature review about the attitude of healthcare providers and women toward (emergency) contraception and induced abortion, prevalence, methods and juridical aspects of induced abortion and prevention policies. Methods: Articles were obtained from PubMed, EMBASE, MEDLINE, PsychINFO and SocIndex (1999 to 2010) using as keywords contraception, induced abortion, termination of pregnancy, medical abortion and West Indies. Results: Thirty-seven articles met the inclusion criteria: 18 on contraception, 17 on induced abortion and two on both subjects. Main results indicated that healthcare providers’ knowledge of emergency contraception was low. Studies showed a poor knowledge of contraception, but counselling increased its effective use. Exact numbers about prevalence of abortion were not found. The total annual number of abortions in the West Indies is estimated at 300 000; one in four pregnancies ends in an abortion. The use of misoprostol diminished the complications of unsafe abortions. Legislation of abortion varies widely in the different islands in the West Indies: Cuba, Puerto Rico, Martinique, Guadeloupe and St Martin have legal abortions . Barbados was the first English-speaking island with liberal legislation on abortion. All other islands have restrictive laws. Conclusion: Despite high estimated numbers of abortion, research on prevalence of abortion is missing. Studies showed a poor knowledge of contraception and low use among adolescents. Most West Indian islands have restrictive laws on abortion.

  • What Shapes Abortion Law? - a Global Perspective
    What shapes abortion law? - A global perspective Dr. Achim Hildebrandt University of Stuttgart Institute for Social Sciences Breitscheidstrasse 2 70174 Stuttgart Germany [email protected] Paper prepared for presentation at the International Conference for Public Policy, Milan, 1-4 July 2015 1 Abstract This paper analyses a correlate of abortion law that has not been addressed in previous research: the effects of past or present communist rule. As communists reject any moral standards that were based on religious beliefs, they liberalized abortion law after they gained power. A quantitative analysis of 170 nations shows that countries with a communist past or present have more liberal abortion laws. Moreover, abortion law tends to be more liberal, the more modern and globalized a country is and the more women are represented in the workforce and in parliament. A larger percentage of Catholics in the population, in contrast, correlates with more restrictive legislation. Some countries do not fit this general pattern and the paper discusses the reasons. Based on the empirical results it goes on to present the implications of the findings for public policy: In many countries strong and persistent socio-economic and cultural forces stand in the way of further abortion law liberalization. Under these conditions, proponents of liberalization have greater chances of success if they take a moderate stance and focus on women’s health instead of women’s rights. Introduction Legislation on abortion is frequently the subject of heated political disputes about first principles, which leave only little room for compromise: Calls for women’s self-determination clash with religious beliefs and prohibitions.
