The Expression of Experience: Code's Critique of Gilligan's Abortion Study.
Pitt, Alice
Journal of Moral Education, v20 n2 p177-90 1991
Presents a response to Lorraine Code's critique of Carol Gilligan's abortion study. Urges that abortion be read as a socially constructed experience based on more than women's moral decisions. Discusses language and experience to present abortion as an area of contested meaning in historical and ideological constructions of social life. (DK)
