Introduction In 1973, the US Supreme Court established that abortion is a constitutional right with the landmark ruling Roe v. Wade (410 U.S. 113). The Court recognized fetus viability as the earliest ​ ​ ​ stage of when the state may prohibit a woman from obtaining an abortion. Viability, defined as the point of fetal development where the fetus can survive outside the womb, was estimated to occur at the gestational age of 28 weeks. This decision was largely upheld in Planned Parenthood ​ of Southeastern Pennsylvania v. Casey (505 U.S. 833 1992), when the Court ruled that the U.S. Constitution indeed protects a pregnant woman’s liberty to choose abortion. In spite of these rulings, abortion has remained a divisive and widely debated issue in the United States, and in 2019, eleven states passed bills that impose restrictions on abortion and challenge the Roe ruling. Alabama enacted the harshest bill to date with a complete ban on abortion. Others, like Georgia and Ohio, prohibit the procedure after a fetal heartbeat can be detected, which is around six weeks into the pregnancy. Along with these fetal heartbeat bills, other states ​ ​ ban the performance at eight and eighteen weeks, respectively. With the 2018 appointment of Brett Kavanaugh rendering a conservative majority in the Supreme Court, bill makers hope to challenge Roe v Wade, creating new precedent on abortion law in the United States (Lai 2019). ​ ​ Alabama Governor Kay Ivey said when signing the bill that “it is time, once again, for the US ​ Supreme Court to revisit this important matter, and they believe this act may bring about the best opportunity for this to occur'' (Reilly 2019). The main arguments of the self-described pro-life movement for abortion regulations have since ​ ​ ​ ​ the 1973 ruling been centered around the rights of the fetus. The dominant framing has thus been one constructed around fetal life and fetal rights, where the innocent and defenseless fetus’s right to life is opposed by the pregnant woman’s interests in a maternal-fetal conflict (Ferree, Gamson, ​ Gerhards, and Rucht 2002). However, some scholars argue that this framing has shifted, with the ​ ​ emergence of a pro-woman, pro-life, or PWPL faction of the antiabortion movement that instead ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ argues that abortion is bad for women (Rose 2011, Trumpy 2014). These woman-centered actors thus challenge the previously shared notion that pro-choice movements are concerned with 3 protecting women’s rights, whilst the pro-life movement focuses on protecting the fetal right to life. Through these PWPL arguments, the pro-life movement simultaneously attempts to change movement audiences views of them, as well as of pro-choice actors whom they cast as anti-woman (Oaks 2009). A conservative-leaning majority of the Supreme Court have created new opportunities for the pro-life movement, resulting in mobilization around the 1973 Roe. v. Wade ruling once again. With new pro-woman framing strategies gaining ground, the recent upsurge of abortion restrictions raises questions of how we could understand this trend. This essay will explore closer what frames are utilized in the latest wave of policy, and how the abortion issue is approached by contemporary policy actors. 1.1. Aim and Research Questions The aim of this study is to understand the way the policy issue of abortion is framed in the recent bills. Policies are not only instrumental but expressive– they communicate values and beliefs. In addition to conveying collective identity, policy frames shape our understanding and perception of different matters (Yanow, 2000). The understanding of a specific problem prompts certain suggested courses of action. In other words, the way a policy is framed has direct effects on citizens’ lives. In order to investigate this, a frame analysis of recent policy will be conducted, in which various frames will be identified and discussed. The first research question this thesis will address is then: How is abortion framed in recent U.S. anti-abortion policy? ​ In addition to this overarching inquiry, this essay will investigate the presence and extent of woman-centric arguments, as well as their interplay with traditional pro-life narratives. It will examine arguments surrounding the seemingly contradictory pro-woman, pro-life stance, and the way themes of rights, morality, and science are used to shape pro-life frames. This departure will allow for an exploration of the proposed frame shift, and specifically, its place in policy. This essay will thus explore if pro-woman arguments have gained a foothold in American legislation. 4 The second research question is then: How has pro-woman, pro-life arguments influenced policy ​ frames? 1.2. Disposition The first section of this essay will provide previous research and a brief background of the American anti-abortion movement and the emergence of the pro-woman, pro-life faction. After this, a theoretical framework on social movement theory, specifically on frames and frame alignment will be provided. This will be followed by previous research on frame alignment in the pro-life movement. The third section of this essay will present the scholarly contributions on empirical frame analysis as well as the used research design, including methodology and material. In the fourth section, findings will be presented and discussed. Lastly, this essay will be concluded with final remarks and suggestions for further research on the topic. 1.3. Definitions In this essay, the terms anti-abortion and pro-life will be used interchangeably. Likewise, the terms abortion rights and pro-choice will be used synonymously. These terms will refer exclusively to the abortion movements in the United States. Both pro-life and pro-choice are purposefully politically charged labels, as the use of pro-life implies that opposers are anti-life or pro-death, whilst the term pro-choice implies the existence of an anti-choice movement. These are however the most common self-descriptions in the debate regarding the moral and legal status of abortion– in a poll by Gallup, only 6 % of respondents did not consider themselves pro-choice nor pro-life (2019). The pro-life movement, then, refers in this essay to the informal network of anti-abortion supporters that mobilize to achieve common goals (Tarrow, 1998). This study is not intended to evaluate the veracity of any medical definitions, scientific evidence or factual claims used in the debate. Instead, what will be investigated is the way in which these are understood and employed. Consequently, no working definitions will be given of the discussed subjects– woman, fetus, mother, and child. Still, it should be noted that both women and others with female-assigned reproductive systems are affected by abortion restrictions. 5 Likewise, many women do not have female-assigned reproductive systems. These dimensions will however be omitted from this report. 2. Theoretical Framework In this segment, a theoretical framework and previous research will be provided. Initially, background and previous research of the pro-life movement will be presented. In the following section, the key concept of frames will be introduced and conceptualized within social movement theory. This will be followed by the specific previous study of frame alignment in the pro-life movement. 2.1. The American Anti-abortion Movement: Before and After Roe v. Wade In the late 1960s, the conflict surrounding abortion grew more and more contentious. With the feminist movement came new demands for the decriminalization of abortion, as a means to achieve equality through sexual freedom and control over one’s reproduction. In the summer of 1972, two out of three Americans believed that abortion should be a decision solely between a woman and her doctor. According to the poll, Republican voters agreed with this statement to a larger extent than Democratic voters, by 68% and 59% respectively (Greenhouse & Siegel 2011 p. 2031). With a growing support for the decriminalization of abortion, Catholics began to mobilize nationwide in opposition to the abortion rights advocates. Republican political strategists thus began encouraging Richard Nixon to change his stance on abortion, to attract the Catholic voters– traditionally a Democratic demographic (Greenhouse & Siegel 2011 p. 2057). This strategy fits into a larger Republican positioning toward the loss of traditional values. The Republican Party attempted to attract social conservatives by placing themselves in opposition to abortion, drug use, and the anti-war movement (Greenhouse & Siegel 2011 p. 2056). Nixon won the election and gained support from 52% of the country’s Catholics, compared to 33% in his 1968 presidential win (Novak 2012).

It is because of the grassroots support of the young white men who adore him that Ron Paul has become a major figure in today’s political scene. What attracts young white men to Ron Paul? This paper explores the history and discourse of Libertarianism to better understand the political subjectivity and identity of Ron Paul supporters. In Chapter 2, I historically contextualize Paul’s libertarian discourse. I argue that the discourse of libertarianism is characterized by claims to an apolitical, ahistorical past in which Libertarian rhetoric naturalizes discourses of free market capitalism, “classical” liberalism, and “authentic” Americanism.

  • Dilthey and Carnap: the Feeling of Life, the Scientifc Worldview, and the Elimination of Metaphysics
    CHAPTER 12 Dilthey and Carnap: The Feeling of Life, the Scientifc Worldview, and the Elimination of Metaphysics Eric S. Nelson INTRODUCTION In this chapter I will propose a reinterpretation of the early Vienna Circle’s project of radical empiricism by reconsidering it in light of its under-appreciated Continental sources. After briefy discussing recent challenges to the standard view of logical positivism, such as its social- political context in “Red Vienna,” I examine the impact of “life- philosophical” thinkers such as Nietzsche and—in particular—Dilthey on the thought of Rudolf Carnap. Dilthey’s modernistic advocacy for empirical scientifc inquiry and his far-reaching critique of metaphysics as refecting a conceptually unjustifable and indemonstrable perspective expressing a “feeling of life” and interpretively (affectively, pragmatically) articulated in a “worldview” was embraced, via Dilthey’s student and Carnap’s teacher Herman Nohl (1879–1960), in Carnap’s pre- physicalist writings of the 1920s and the Vienna Circle’s 1929 manifesto. Such E.S. Nelson (*) Division of the Humanities, Academic Building, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Kowloon, Hong Kong © The Author(s) 2018 321 J. Feichtinger et al. (eds.), The Worlds of Positivism, https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-65762-2_12 322 E.S. NELSON works announced the task of overcoming metaphysics and defending the scientifc life-stance (Lebenshaltung) against its authoritarian, metaphysi- cal, and religious detractors. The argument developed here concerns the philosophical and social-political nexus of life, science, and metaphysics in Dilthey and Carnap. Popularized or “vulgar” expressions of what came to be called Lebensphilosophie often served a reactionary role in Germanic culture in conservative cultural critics such as Ludwig Klages and Oswald Spengler.

  • Theatre Beyond Space and Time
    Theatre Beyond Space and Time Reza Abdoh in conversation with Gautam Dasgupta he brilliant, visionary artist Reza Abdoh (1963–1995) was an Iranian-born theatre director, playwright, and founder of his own theatre company Dar T A Luz. Encompassing theatre, dance, literature, pop culture, video, and myth, his works include Bogeyman, Father Was a Peculiar Man, Tight Right White, and Quotations from a Ruined City, and were primarily seen in Los Angeles, New York City, and Europe. The PAJ Publications title Reza Abdoh, edited by Daniel Mufson, featuring essays on him and the text of The Hip-Hop Waltz of Eurydice, was published in 1999. His play, The Law of Remains, appears in the PAJ volume Plays for the End of the Century (1996). Abdoh’s work was so daring and original that the memory of his theatre productions, produced often in abandoned or site-specific spaces, has long remained for those who were fortunate to see his work, and then spread to those who never had that opportunity. Since Abdoh’s death, a documentary of his life has been made by Adam Soch. Reza Abdoh, a retrospective of the artist’s work, opened on June 3, 2018, at MoMA PS1 in Queens. The interview published here for the first time is from the archive of PAJ Publications. It was taped on April 7, 1994. Let’s start off with the most embarrassing of our questions. You have often been referred to in the press as the bad boy, the enfant terrible of the American theatre. Do you actu- ally see yourself as being deliberately provocative? No.

Issues related to its motivation, the mechanisms of its formation, its implementation, etc. remain unsolved. The paper presents a theoretical review of modern approaches to the investigation of personal civic identity. It deals with psychological aspects of personal identity as a psychological phenomenon. The author employs her own methodology of investigating self-assessment of personal civic identity in adolescents. The research involves 208 humanitarian students of Ryazan State University named for S. A. Yesenin (Ryazan, Russia). The research indicates that there are only a few people showing high-level personal civic identity. Students of this category are characterized by a formed axiological sphere, which presupposes deep understanding of their civic stand, independence in their life choices, willingness to develop into members of civic society. People with low-level civic identity are characterized by extreme egocentricity and self-oriented motivation, underdeveloped self-regulatory functions, rigid thinking, stereotyped behavior patterns.

    International Journal of History and Philosophical Research Vol.7, No.1, pp.1-11, February 2019 ___Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) PHILOSOPHY OF AUTHENTIC HUMANISM: THE ONLY WAY OF CURBING CONFLICT AND VIOLENCE Eugene Anowai (PhD Louain) and Stephen Chukwujekwu (PhD Louvain) Departmrnt of Philosophy, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University, Igbariam Campus ABSTRACT: The ultimate goal of Humanism is human flourishing; making life better for all humans, and as the most conscious species, also promoting concern for the welfare of other sentient beings and the planet as a whole. The focus is on doing good and living well in the here and now, and leaving the world a better place for those who come after. This paper aims at presenting Humanism and its policies if well applied as a way of not only curbing violence, terrorism, genocide and all forms of social ills associated with our contemporary and global world of today, but also a way to bring about the much needed peace, harmony and progress in this era that has been battered by these ills. KEYWORDS: Humanism, Violence, Terrorism, Genocide, Peace, Harmony INTRODUCTION Humanism is a political, philosophical and ethical stance that emphasizes the value and agency of human beings, individually and collectively, and generally prefers critical thinking and evidence (rationalism, empiricism) over established doctrine or faith (fideism). The meaning of the term humanism has fluctuated, according to the successive intellectual movements which have identified with it. Generally, however, humanism refers to a perspective that affirms some notion of human freedom and progress.
