Abstract
In its 2022 Dobbs, State Health Officer of the Mississippi Department of Health decision, the United States Supreme Court overturned the historic Roe v. Wade, adopted in 1973. This was achieved by referring to the fact that the right to abortion is neither expressly guaranteed by the Constitution or its amendments, nor by the American national tradition, and by referring to the member states of the United States as the only entities entitled to regulate the right to abortion. By reintroducing the possibility of limiting or abolishing the right to abortion through the laws of member states into the U.S. legal system, the Court laid new foundations for the debate that has for decades divided constitutional lawyers and American society into two mutually very distant poles.
