  Book Description
  Publication Date: November 14, 2011
  Since Roe v. Wade, abortion has continued to be a
divisive political issue in the United States. In contrast, it has remained primarily a medical issue in Britain and
Canada despite the countries’ shared heritage. Doctors and Demonstrators looks beyond simplistic cultural or
religious explanations to find out why abortion politics and policies differ so dramatically in these otherwise similar
countries.
  Drew Halfmann argues that political institutions are the key. In the United States, federalism,
judicial review, and a private health care system contributed to the public definition of abortion as an individual
right rather than a medical necessity. Meanwhile, Halfmann explains, the porous structure of American political parties
gave pro-choice and pro-life groups the opportunity to move the issue onto the political agenda. A groundbreaking study
of the complex legal and political factors behind the evolution of abortion policy, Doctors and Demonstrators will be
vital for anyone trying to understand this contentious issue.

  "The abortion issue offers Halfmann the opportunity to account for many of the ills that the U.S. system is
manifesting across many other issues, and thus provides not only a comprehensive political history of the path the
abortion issue followed but good indications of the sources of the havoc wreaked on U.S. decisions on other issues from
climate change to tax policy." (Myra Marx Ferree, American Journal of
Sociology)
  
  "Scholarship around abortion politics and policy may be nearly as crowded and
contentious a field as the phenomena it seeks to explain. Drew Halfmann’s book, Doctors and Demonstrators,
ventures boldly into this arena with a compelling tale of institutional mediation of abortion politics and policy in
three nations." (Mark Wolfson, Mobilization)
  
  "...an interesting and
absorbing analysis...." "His view that institutions were the key players in the differing developments in the [three
countries] is a powerful one in light of his arguments, making this a book well worth reading." (Gloria Cox, Law and Politics Book Review)
  
  "Doctors and Demonstrators is
an innovative, thorough, and expertly designed work of political analysis. There is much to admire here, but one of the
most important elements is the use of a comparative historical approach to an issue of legal policy. Halfmann sets up an
intriguing puzzle - why are abortion politics in the United States, Britain, and Canada so different? - and provides a
subtle yet clear and powerful explanation." (John Skrentny, University of California, San
Diego)
  
  "Halfmann's analysis is an important contribution to sociology and a source of timely
insight that goes beyond the specifics of abortion issues to controversies over health care generally." (Craig Calhoun, London School of Economics and Political Science)
