Postawy Polaków wobec aborcji w latach 1989-2023
The Attitudes of Poles towards Abortion between 1989 and 2023

Summary/Abstract: The article presents the attitudes of Poles towards abortion observed over time. The first part presents the notions of the general public, while the second focuses on the opinions of young people. For over two decades the acceptance of abortion was steadily becoming less and less common among Polish people. However, in 2016, when the issue of abortion became yet again the subject of legal, political and social debates, the percentage of Poles who oppose abortion started to decrease. Recently, young people display more liberal approaches towards the issue of abortion than the notions present in the general population. This correlates with the growing percentage of young people – especially women – who describe their political views as leftist. Subject scientific research: attitudes of Poles towards abortion; aim: presentation and analysis of changes of attitudes of Poles towards abortion; method: desk research.
