Conclusions.This book provides a comprehensive study of abortion politics and policy in Northern Ireland. Whilst there is a substantial amount of literature on abortion in Ireland and the rest of the United Kingdom, there has been scant academic attention paid to the situation in Northern Ireland. Adopting a feminist institutionalist framework, the book illustrates the ways in which abortion has been addressed at both the national institution at Westminster and the devolved institution at Stormont. Covering the period from early peace process in the 1980s to the present day, the text will be of interest to politics scholars, but also sociologists, historians and students of Irish studies. .Gender and Politics,2662-5814Identity politicsEurope—Politics and governmentPublic policyCultural policyPolitics and Genderhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911260European Politicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911130Public Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911060Cultural Policy and Politicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411120Identity politics.Europe—Politics and government.Public policy.Cultural policy.Politics and Gender.European Politics.Public Policy.Cultural Policy and Politics.342.41084Thomson Jenniferauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1061221BOOK9910338027303321Abortion Law and Political Institutions2517905UNINA
