Book "Abortus, wordt vervolgd..."

Book Abortus, wordt vervolgd … ("Abortion, to be continued"), submitted by deMens.nu (Unie Vrijzinnige Verenigingen – UVV)

The secular humanist movement has long campaigned for the right to choose. On 3 April 1990, an at thar time ground-breaking law was passed, which allowed termination of pregnancy under certain conditions.

One year after the adoption of the law, the Unie Vrijzinnige Verenigingen (UVV – “Union of Secular Humanist Organisations”) published the book “Abortion, wordt vervolgd…” (“Abortion, to be continued”), edited by P. Rogie, D. Vandermeulen and G. Vandervorst. The aim was to inform and sensitise the population on the subject of abortion. It offered a comprehensive overview of the issue in four parts (history, reflections, practice and points of view).

The annexes illustrate the vote one year before. At that time, the inclusion of an address list of care institutions was also important.
