520 "Available Open Access under CC-BY-NC licence. Irish law
currently permits abortion only where the life of the
pregnant woman is at risk. Since 1983, the 8th Amendment
to the Constitution has recognised the "unborn" as having
a right to life equal to that of the "mother".
Consequently, most people in Ireland who wish to bring
their pregnancies to an end either import the abortion
pill illegally, travel abroad to access abortion, or
continue with the pregnancy against their will. Now,
however, there are signs of change. A constitutional
referendum will be held in 2018, after which it will be
possible to reimagine, redesign, and reform the law on
abortion. Written by experts in the field, this book draws
on experience from other countries, as well as experiences
of maternal medical care in Ireland, to call for a
feminist, woman-centered, and rights-based radical new
approach to abortion law in Ireland. Directly challenging
grounds-based abortion law, this accessible guide brings
together feminist analysis, comparative research, human
rights law, and political awareness to propose a new
constitutional and legislative settlement on reproductive
autonomy in Ireland. It offers practical proposals for
policymakers and advocates, including model legislation,
making it an essential campaigning tool leading up to the
referendum." Irish law currently permits abortion only
