This book traces the development of the discourse used by the
pro-life movement since the 1970s, and its relationship to public
policy efforts at the state and federal level. The pro-life
movement's successes, both in legislative efforts to limit access
to abortion as well changing the public's perception of the
pro-life movement, is surprising given American's continued support
of some level of access to abortion. Using a multi-method approach,
the authors argue that these successes are a result of a dynamic
and responsive movement, which has adapted both its discourse and
public policy efforts since Roe v. Wade. With the Hobby Lobby
ruling in 2014, the movement has successfully created its newest
strategy, integrating claims of religious liberty to protect
individuals and corporate entities. The book's examination of the
pro-life strategy highlights its current and future impact on human
rights, reproductive rights, and right-wing politics.
