Reproductive Rights (20)
Global Viewpoints, Series Review
“Global Viewpoints is a new twelve volume series that is specifically published by Greenhaven Publishing for students in grades 9-12. The individual titles comprising this exceptionally well-constructed Contemporary Social Issues series, available in both library binging and a paperback edition, (as well as individually) both school and community libraries should acquire the entire set." -Midwest Book Review
Around the world, state legislatures have taken the liberty of policing women's bodies, suppressing women's rights and restricting or prohibiting access to health care, contraception, and abortion. In some countries, women have been banned from breastfeeding in public, are subject to forced sterilization, and are required to have spousal authorization for prenatal and obstetric treatments. Are reproductive rights human rights, and if so, how do we ensure them? This thought-provoking resource offers global perspectives on the need to expand reproductive health services to ensure the safety and agency of women around the world.
