Objectives

  • Define terms that I will be using throughout the blog
  • Access vs. Legality
  • Discuss abortion availability in the U.S.in a general sense
  • Abortion in rural areas of the U.S.
  • Abortion in urban areas of the U.S.
  • Abortion in Australia**, a country with universal health care, therefore universal access
  • Throughout all, address TFT theory and analysis in terms of my framework of a legal but inaccessible entity

** Unfortunately, I had to change my other country of comparison because all of the information I could find on abortion laws was, you guessed it, in French. I should have realized it, and I was just epitomizing a typical American in my assumption that all the information I needed would be in a language I knew. My apologies to Jason, I know you were excited to hear about the issues in France, and others who were interested in my blog concept as well. However, I do feel I can do just as well with Australia, perhaps better so stay with me! Again, my apologies for the confusion!
