| dc.description.abstract | This thesis examines the impact COVID-19 has had on abortion access in two nations, Malta and the United States of America. It analyses this impact through examining the relationship between law and society, basic human needs theory, and structural violence theory. By using these lenses for examination and comparing the different outcomes in the Maltese case study and American case study, focusing on Virginia and Arkansas at a state level, then meaning may be derived. Through a conflict lens, this thesis hopes to look at the sociological and governmental structures that can either complicate or simplify abortion access. | |
