Abstract
The decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization in June 2022 fundamentally changed the reproductive rights landscape, both in the US and beyond. The case focused on a law introduced in Mississippi in 2018, which would have banned most abortions occurring after the first trimester. Given both the decision in Dobbs and wider global developments, it now seems more vital than ever for feminist academics and activists to renew their attention to reproductive justice. This Rapid Response series contributes to these important discussions and developments. While the Rapid Response format may appear unfamiliar and unconventional, we believe the urgency of this unfolding situation warrants such an approach. Traditionally, academic publishing has struggled to offer accessibility in the sense that access to published works often requires institutional membership. It has also been marred by temporality, in the sense that the nature of publishing frequently creates long delays between crucial events and the availability of relevant materials. This curated Rapid Response engages with reproductive rights and the decision of Dobbs from a range of different perspectives, and will be supplemented with expert feminist insights on an ongoing basis for as long as necessary.
