- Title
La punición franquista del aborto. La Ley de 1941 en perspectiva.
- Authors
Barrera López, Begoña
- Abstract
This article presents a historical perspective analysis of the Law of January 24, 1941, for the protection of natality against abortion and anti-contraception propaganda. It starts from the premise that while abortion has been considered a criminal act in penal legislation since the onset of the modern era, this consideration has also been contingent upon each historical period. Through the exegesis of both penal texts and expert discourses (medical and legal), this article argues that the Francoist regulation represented the zenith of legal punishment for voluntary termination of pregnancy.
