Although the common opinion about the illegality of abortion is indicated in medical conditions, its regulation varies widely according to the country. Abortion is available to women on request in many countries, while in others, there is restriction or prohibition altogether. In the contest when some countries end the nationwide right to abortion, the Republic of Benin in 2020 broadened the social grounds, allowing abortion up to 12 weeks of gestational age. This paper aims to overview abortion legislation in selected countries and to compare them to the reform in the Republic of Benin, which became one of the several African countries broadly permitting abortion within 12 weeks of amenorrheaUmetna prekinitev nosečnosti ostaja sporna zaradi moralnih, političnih in verskih razlogov. Čeprav je splošno mnenje o nelegalnosti splava nakazano v medicinskih pogojih zanj, se njegova regulacija močno razlikuje glede na državo. Splav je ženskam na voljo na zahtevo v mnogih državah, medtem ko je v drugih omejen ali celo prepovedan. V zgodovinskem trenutku, v katerem številne države omejujejo pravico do splava, je Republika Benin leta 2020 razširila možne podlage zanj, dovoljujoč splav do 12 tednov gestacijske starosti. Ta članek si prizadeva pregledati zakonodajo o splavu v izbranih državah in jih primerjati z reformo v Republiki Benin, ki je postala ena izmed več afriških držav, ki splav široko dovoljujejoTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverza v Mariboru, Pravna fakulteta
