📝 ‘How am I supposed to feel?’: navigating the emotional ambivalences of abortion decisions New article by Julia Schmid, Anna Durnová, and Sylvia Herzog in #Emotions and #Society (Bristol University Press) Read online now #OpenAccess ➡️ t.ly/78okX @univie.ac.at @evrop-anka.bsky.social #Sociology
Screenshot of abstract: This article examines the emotional dimensions of abortion decisions in Austria, where abortion remains legally restricted and socially stigmatised. Unlike in countries with more liberal reproductive laws, the Austrian legal framework imposes strict time limits and conditions on abortion, while public discourse is dominated by conservative actors and the Catholic Church in particular. This article explores how these constraints shape individual experiences, focusing on the a posteriori emotional processing of abortion decisions. Drawing on 12 in-depth interviews with individuals who terminated pregnancies in Austria, the analysis reveals how limited emotional scripts leave women uncertain about what feelings are expected (or even allowed) after an abortion. While participants expressed confidence in their decisions, the analysis identifies ambivalent emotions, such as regret, grief, empowerment and loneliness. Discussing the broader implications of limited emotional scripts, our analysis showcases how reproductive decisions are not only personal but also deeply embedded sociopolitically, with emotions serving as both a site of agency and a reflection of broader societal constraints.
