The gender injustice of abortion lawsDOI: https://doi.org/10.1080/26410397.2019.1626181 Abstract: Abstract This commentary is a response to Katarzyna S?kowska-Koz?owska’s article on the treatment of criminal abortion laws as a form of sex discrimination under international human rights law through a study of the communications, Mellet v. Ireland and Whelan v. Ireland. The commentary offers a reading of these communications, and specifically the sex discrimination analysis premised on inequalities of treatment among women, as an engagement with the structural discrimination that characterises abortion laws, and as a radical vision for gender justice under international human rights law
