McKeegan, Michele Abortion Politics: Mutiny in the Ranks of the Right 0029205336 / 9780029205334; With the continuing prospect that Roe v. Wade may be overturned, the war in our society over reproductive rights is continuing to gain momentum. The author provides a lively and dramatic account of how abortion first became a political issue, beginning in the early 1970s when a disaffected group of young Republican party strategists had the idea of trying to forge a new conservative coalition out of previously disparate single-issue constituencies. They scored numerous successes. President Reagan made numerous appointments from the ranks of the New Right, and while he declined to press such favorite conservative causes as the Human Life Amendment, he quietly authorized his executive appointees to initiate a campaign of bureaucratic harassment and obstruction against the family planning establishment. The author reconstructs this largely unreported campaign, which was conducted by several executive agencies. 227 pages including end notes and index. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Free Press New York, 1992, First Edition; Hardcover, As New, As New; Book
