  • An Empirical Examination of the Abortion Issue
    Yale Law & Policy Review Volume 1, Number 1, Fall 1982 ARTICLES Electoral Folklore: An Empirical Examination of the Abortion Issue Jeffrey W. Stempel* William D. Morris** For nearly a decade, the abortion issue has loomed large in American politics. City councilmen, state legislators, congressmen, presidents, and Supreme Court nominees are routinely asked their opinions on legalized abortion. Despite the controversy generated by pro-life and pro-choice' interest groups, little is known regarding the issue's impact upon voting behavior. This study seeks to enhance that knowledge by empirically examining congressional general elections in order to assess the impact of the abortion issue. We then review our finding that the abortion issue does not alter established voting patterns in these contests. I. The Abortion Issue.- A Pohtical War Without Casualty Figures During the past decade, abortion has been perhaps the most emo- tional and divisive issue in American politics. One national magazine, in its cover story devoted to the issue, described public division on the issue in Armageddon-like terms: * Law Clerk to Judge Raymond J. Broderick, Eastern District of Pennsylvania. B.A., University of Minnesota 1977; J.D., Yale Law School 1981. ** Chairman, Independent-Republican Party of Minnesota. B.A., Oakland University 1970; Ph.D., Carnegie-Mellon University 1975; Professor of Political Science, University of Minnesota, 1974-1981. 1. Semantics has comprised a major battle of the abortion controversy. Those opposing the Roe v. Wade, 340 U.S. 113 (1973), decision have termed themselves "pro-life", a designa- tion frowned upon by those favoring legalized abortion. Not surprisingly, this "pro-choice" group resents the implication that it opposes life.

  • In Memoriam: Robert F. Drinan, SJ
    IN MEMORIAM: ROBERT F. DRINAN, S.J. (1920-2007) Father Drinan's Revolution HAROLD HONGJU KOH* Father Bob Drinan was not one of those lawyers who loved human rights but couldn't stand human beings. What made him special was his unique ability to fight fiercely every day for human rights, while just as fiercely loving every human being he met. Like other happy human rights warriors-like Nelson Mandela and Desmond Tutu-Bob Drinan lived his life both as a fearless advocate and as a joyous human being. I know, because I benefited from both faces of Bob Drinan: the generous man who loved human beings and the scholar-advocate who loved human rights. It was because of Bob that my father became a lawyer, and it was because of Bob that the global human rights revolution that has been my life's work became possible. Incredibly, my family's debt to Bob Drinan began more than fifty years ago, when he was dean of Boston College Law School. I say "incredibly," because for most law school deans, becoming dean marks the pinnacle-and often the end-of your legal career. But Father Drinan was a prodigy. His deanship came when he was only thirty-six, at the start of what would be a remarkable half-century as a professor, dean, politician, ethicist, and human rights activist. My family first met Bob Drinan in the late 1950s when my father, a South Korean graduate student, had just received his doctorate from Harvard Law School. Because of the precarious political situation in Korea, my father felt he also needed an American law degree, should he ever need to practice law in this country.
