Roe v. Wade: A Lesson in Liberty?

In this edition, Gareth Seward addresses the overturning of the Roe v. Wade case that has sparked an abortion debate from the perspective of libertarian thinking and philosophy, exploring the morality of abortion in the context of the principle of harm, discussing the differences between lawful actions and legal actions as well as the definition of crime, advocating the libertarian notion of personal responsibility, and attacking claims that the pro-life position promotes state force. LibertariDan follows with an analysis of how the US Libertarian Party’s changed position on abortion has resulted in a more neutral policy, advocating a true state-free defence of individual rights against violence with reference to Ron Paul, interrogating the claims of those who solely support a women’s right to choose, and noting the reluctance of many on all sides to engage in the abortion debate.
The Free Speech bulletin is a weekly electronic publication of political, social, economic and cultural thought from Britain’s pioneering free thinkers. With a focus on politics beyond the propaganda, Free Speech aims to give a voice to smaller pro-liberty political parties, organisations and individuals whose ideas and perspectives have been silenced by the mainstream. Packed with concise yet informative articles, Free Speech intends to challenge corporate media by presenting accurate and truthful accounts of current affairs that empower individuals to value liberty.
