MADDEN ARIAS, Rose Mary. Voluntary and informed interruption of pregnancy. Med. leg. Costa Rica [online]. 2006, vol.23, n.1, pp.17-32. ISSN 2215-5287.
This article analyses the voluntary interruption of pregnancy from the feminist, along with a legal, point of view, parting from the fact that one of the forms of violence against women, and particularly, against their reproductive rights, is the legal, cultural, social, or religious impossibilities to decide informed and voluntarily the interruption of pregnancy. This way, the article studies the regulations imposed by the Penal Code regarding abortion and how they are forms of violence against women.
