Abstract
This book proposes to conceptualize reproductive violence as a distinct manifestation of gender-based violence. The interpretation and application of reproductive crimes under international law must be informed by the protected value of reproductive autonomy, understood as the freedom to choose whether, how, and under what circumstances to reproduce. This allows for an adequate reflection of victims’ experiences and surfaces the unique harm imposed by reproductive violence.
