| Résumé: | The lead article in the March-April 2016 issue of the Hastings Center Report struggles with purported rights. The authors, led by Mara Buchbinder of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, report on a study in North Carolina of physicians and others who were providing care to women seeking abortions and were required by state law to talk to a woman before the abortion about the medical risks of abortions and of pregnancies, the possibility that medical assistance benefits might be available if the woman chose to carry the pregnancy to term, and several other issues. The law is grounded in rights claims—it is motivated by concerns about a right to life and framed in terms of a right to morally important information (it is known as the Woman's Right to Know Act)—but the abortion providers felt that it imposed on the women, on the providers, and on the relationship between them. |
