Újkori és jelenkori történelem
In 1974, the Constitution of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia proclaimed
the free choice of
family planning as a human right, which some argued was tantamount to a constitutional
declaration
of complete freedom from abortion. This legal framework and permissive practice was,
of course, not
limited to Yugoslavia, but still affects its successor states today. In the context
of my study, I will review
the abortion legislation of three such successor states - Serbia, Croatia and Slovenia.
It can be seen that
these states, although they started from a common basis, are now in different places,
as a result of a
number of factors. Income levels are not equal, but societies' perceptions of values
and even the role of
religion can be important aspects of the issue.
