The Core aborts, the Gap allows no choice

INTERNATIONAL: “A question of life and death: The struggle between ‘pro-choice’ and ‘pro-life’ forces around the world,” The Economist, 19 May 2007, p. 65.

Just a fascinating map here that captures the Core-Gap divide amazingly well, except for Argentina, Brazil and Chile in South America.

Other than that, it’s overwhelmingly true that abortions are allowed in the Core and disallowed in the Gap.

What does that say?

You connect by empowering women and you empower women by connecting. Either way, once you do, they want more rights and more control.

And that’s just the way it is, and the way it will become as globalization spreads.

One would expect that, as in the case of empowered women, the New Core will want more rights and more control. Will we (the increasingly less powerful Old Core) find this acceptable?
