As is often the case, many of these popular analogies have been imprecise, underdeveloped and historically simplistic. In Slavery, Abortion, and the Politics of Constitutional Meaning, Justin Buckley Dyer provides the first book-length scholarly treatment of the parallels between slavery and abortion in American constitutional development. In this fascinating and wide-ranging study, Dyer demonstrates that slavery and abortion really are historically, philosophically and legally intertwined in America. The nexus, however, is subtler and more nuanced than is often suggested, and the parallels involve deep principles of constitutionalism. 517 3 $aSlavery, Abortion, & the Politics of Constitutional Meaning 606 $aAbortion$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States 606 $aAbortion$xLaw and legislation$zUnited States 606 $aSlavery$zUnited States 606 $aSlavery$xLaw and legislation$zUnited States 606 $aConstitutional law$zUnited States 615 0$aAbortion$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aAbortion$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aSlavery 615 0$aSlavery$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aConstitutional law 676 $a342.73 700 $aDyer$b Justin Buckley$f1983-$01033560 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462872103321 996 $aSlavery, abortion, and the politics of constitutional meaning$92483743 997 $aUNINA
