Summary/Abstract: This paper will discuss the stance of general population of women in Serbia on the right to abortion, based on the data collected from empirical research. The purpose of this study is to point out the women`s attitutude towards the right to abortion, and towards marriage and family. We intend to examine attitudes of women of different ages and levels of education towards these issues, especially on the right to abortion, which is frequently the subject of discussion in Europe. According to our findings, women consider that abortion is a spouse`s or partner`s right over the offspring and a woman’s right over her own body. Aditionally, our respondents do not support the abolition of the right to deliberate termination of pregnancy.
