Beschreibung:Nowadays, Latin America is immersed in high level of polarization, between progressive and conservative views, and Costa Rica is no exception. As a result, the debate on therapeutic abortion has revolved around religious arguments over technical arguments, permeating Law’s field of action: from the creation of the norm to its application and consequences. It is necessary to reflect on the role played by Law in social conflicts, highlighting the political, religious and ideological elements that converge and, particularly, are hidden within it. Therapeutic abortion finds complications in its application, as well as efforts to reduce its field of action, there are efforts to regulate this field, but its bioethical implications must be considered. Keywords: Therapeutic abortion, bioethics, religion, criminal policy
