Why was Roe v. Wade a controversial case

History
1 answer:
cupoosta [38]3 years ago
4 0

It was controversial mainly for two reasons: Because it involved the abortion attempt of a young woman who was a physical and emotions abuse victim, who had also lied to authorities in Texas in order to get a legal abortion. Public opinion was largely divided on the issue. Conservatives blamed the woman and Democrats blamed the existing laws that prevented women from aborting.

The second reason was judicial: many people considered that the Constitution was being misinterpreted to adjust to shifting social mores. For these dissenters, there was no legal justification of any kind to authorize abortion as a Constitutional right.

Why did Prime Minister Nehru's decision to invade the Portuguese colony of Goa, put President Kennedy in a difficult position?
Archy [21]

Answer:

Nehru's attack on Goa would weaken capitalist forces worldwide, facilitating the spread of communism. This hindered the policy advocated by Kennedy.

Explanation:

Nehru was the prime minister of India and in addition to having to defend the country from the communist threat that was growing because of China and Russia, he had to defend the country from European colonialism.

The Goa region, in Inida, was still dominated and occupied by the Portuguese, forcing Nehru to order an attack to be made in that region, so that the Portuguese could be expelled. President Kennedy saw this as a major threat to capitalist forces, as Portuguese was a capitalist ally and India too. If a capitalist country provoked another capitalist country, it would make capitalism seen as a weak policy and incapable of promoting peace. This would allow communism to move forward with great force.
