    Ethics and the Power of the United States Supreme Court

    , Authors: Ahmad Alarachi
    Version 1 posted 05 July 2022

    As illustrated by Levine et al. (1999) in the American Journal of Public Health, after the Court decision on the 1973 case Roe v. Wade in which abortion was legalized across the country, states--even ones in which abortion had been illegal before the case--experienced drops in fertility rate, especially among teens, women older than 35, non-white women, and unmarried women. This authorization of nationwide freedom of choice for women in accordance with the Constitution, along with the resulting decrease in US birth rates, exemplify the numerous instances in which a Supreme Court case had a noticeable impact on the whole country. Supreme Court cases can also have more subtle (but equally significant) impacts that are not necessarily direct results of the ruling like in Roe

    Power to the people? How Dobbs failed to deliver on democratic representation

    , Authors: Brian Schaffner, Caroline Soler
    Version 1 posted 15 May 2025

    Our study quantifies the disconnect between state abortion policies and public preferences, raising questions about state-level democratic representation and demonstrating that Dobbs has failed to make state abortion policies more representative. 1 Introduction The landscape of abortion policy in the United States underwent a massive shift on June 24, 2022, when the Supreme Court’s Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision eliminated the federal constitu- tional right to abortion (Supreme Court of the United States 2022). After nearly fifty years of protection under Roe

    Simulations, Jurisprudence, and Critical Thinking: A Case Study

    The word flux and variations on skeptical appeared frequently. Additionally, the issues they mentioned most frequently were abortion (Roe v. Wade, 1973) and gay marriage (Obergefell v. Hodges, 2015). Within our current system, we barely ever see real, big, and meaningful legislation that can provide us with even the bare essentials of government. This has left a gaping hole of governance that the people desperately want to be filled in certain cases and this has resulted in types of legislation through judicial action to make up for that ineptitude of the legislature. We’ve seen this with the decisions of Roe

    Furthermore, an analysis of county level data provides evidence that Texas counties located large distances from out-of-state abortion facilities experienced larger birthrate increase than other counties. Introduction On September 1, 2021, The Texas Heartbeat Act took effect. This prevented abortions from being performed in Texas after approximately six weeks gestation. This was the first time since Roe

    Increasingly, members, especially Republicans, proposed amendments to override evidently liberal Warren and Burger Court decisions. Conservatives proposed dozens of amendments overriding court-mandated legislative reapportionment after Reynolds v. Sims, forbidding bussing after Swan v. Charlotte- Mecklenburg Board of Education, outlawing abortion after Roe

    I provide the example of handling a situation in 2014, when I was teaching political science at a community college, in which a student began providing the class with false statistics about contraception. I began by showing a contemporaneous version of the chart cited above from the Guttmacher Institute and then showed how the Guttmacher Institute’s statistics on the total number of abortions since Roe

    Theorizing How Ethnoreligious Conflicts Rise and Remain

    , Authors: Michael Magcamit
    Version 1 posted 25 July 2019

    Extract found to contain search terms

    These studies have focused on key issues such as the role of historical hatreds between the in-group and the out-group vis-à-vis the emergence of violent disputes;5 and the role of fear on the creation of security dilemma between the “us” and the “them”.6 Some of the main findings from this strand of research suggest, for example, that ethnoreligious conflicts emanate from the psychological partitions simultaneously built by competing groups against each other (e.g. Juergensmeyer, 1993; Friedland, 2001; Kinnvall, 2004); and that an ethnoreligious group’s attempts to enhance its own security and well-being cause the other cluster to think of the worst possible case by attributing offensive behaviors and aggressive motives to the former, ultimately resulting in rampant clashes (e.g. Posen, 1993; Roe

    Ct. 2791 (1992): In Casey, a consortium of five abortion clinics, physicians who provided abortions, and one physician who did not sued the governor of Pennsylvania, Robert Patrick Casey, to stop him from enforcing provisions of the Pennsylvania Abortion Control Act of 1982 because it violated constitutional protections established in Roe v. Wade, 113, 93 S. Ct. 705 (1973) . On appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, justice O’Connor joined justices Anthony Kennedy and David Souter in writing a plurality opinion following the Courts 5-4 decision to decide in favor of the plaintiffs. The Casey decision upheld Roe’s constitutional right to an abortion. The decision nonetheless imposed a lesser standard on the government in regulating abortion when it adopted an undue burden standard in place of Roe’s stricter trimester system. In her plurality opinion, O’Connor upheld Roe
