In: Studies in law, politics, and society, Band 35, Heft 1, S. 145-190
This article focuses on one court case concerning the regulation of Anti-Abortion protesting & asks: (1) Do the various actors involved in this case recognize a tension between their actions & their broader beliefs concerning the regulation of political protests? (2) If this tension is recognized, how do the actors resolve it, & if it is not recognized, why is it not? While concerned with legal consciousness & cognitive dissonance, the article is framed by broader questions concerning tolerance & the interaction of law & political passions. 2 Appendixes, 89 References.
