Résumé anglais Jacqueline Heinen, Women between Church and State, or Challenging Legal Abortion in Poland The Catholic Church's crusade for "the right to life" has recently emerged in Poland in the form of a law intending to outlaw abortion. Despite tremendous opposition to this proposed legislation in the country where the rate of abortion is highest among industrialized countries, Polish women are disarmed faced with this challenge. Their vulnerability is as much the result of incoherent state policies in this area pursued by the communist regime as it is the effect of pressure from the Church. In addition, the involvement of the Church in political life limits the efforts of feminist groups in their attempts to respond to the situation.
