    Abortion

    Jonathan and Holly ask whether abortion is more a question of values or science? Whether the ethical or the legal is the most difficult aspect of the issue?

The Political Animals is co-hosted by: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Jonathan Cole⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, an academic interested in conservatism, libertarianism, political ideology and political theology; and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Holly Lawford-Smith⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, an academic working in moral and political philosophy, with a particular interest in feminist theory and movement.
