  • Title: Is there life after Roe v. Wade?
    Author: Mahowald MB.
    Journal: Hastings Cent Rep; 1989; 19(4):22-9. PubMed ID: 2663777.
    Abstract:
    Mahowald's article is one of three in this issue of the Hastings Center Report under the overall title of "Abortion: searching for common ground." The articles were occasioned by the impending U.S. Supreme Court decision in Webster v. Reproductive Health Services (decided 3 Jul 1989), which was widely regarded as the Court's reconsideration of Roe v. Wade (1973). The debate in the United States over abortion has become intransigent and polarized since Roe, and the HCR articles by Mahowald, M. Glendon, and N. Rhoden represent an effort to find areas of agreement between advocates on both sides of the abortion question. Mahowald identifies several points of convergence and proposes modifications to Roe that might better accommodate competing interests of woman, fetus, and society.
