Abstract

Some legislative projects in Argentina propose the recognition of a free and discretionary right to abortion during the firsts weeks (first trimester) of pregnancy, that implies the right to benefits from the State or individuals, in order to carry it out. Such proposals oppose to constitutional previsions and other norms of International Law on human rights.
