Description

Explore a deep legal analysis of human rights and criminalization in 'The Mother of All Crimes' published by Routledge. This academic text examines how the criminal law responds to women whose actions or omissions during pregnancy result in the injury or death of a child born alive. The book provides a detailed comparison between recent legal developments in English law, viewed through the lens of the Human Rights Act 1998, and the significant growth in litigation seen across America over the last twenty years. It examines specific legal doctrines, such as the 'born alive rule' used in England and Wales, and how these rules differ from similar legal frameworks in various American states. This work is a valuable resource for legal professionals, students, and researchers interested in the intersection of criminal law, human rights, and reproductive legal issues. By comparing international legal trends, the text offers a clear perspective on the evolving landscape of criminal liability and the protection of rights within the legal system.
