abstract
The 1966 abolition and 1989 legalization of abortion in Romania immediately doubled and decreased by about a third the number of births per month, respectively. Comparing birth month cohorts born on either side of the reform cut-offs allows us to cleanly identify the effect of abortion access on crime. For both the abolition and legalization of abortion, we find large and significant effects on the level of crime and risky-behavior related hospitalization, but insignificant effects on crime and hospitalization rates. We conclude with a discussion of what our results say about the mechanisms underlying the crime effects of abortion policy.
Introduction
Abortion policy is actively debated in both the United States and around the world today. During the President Trump mandate, many US state legislators approved bills that made abortion policies more restrictive.1 This contrasts many other countries: a 2018 Guttmacher report indicates that 27 countries liberalized their abortion laws since 2000.2 Most of this debate focuses on the moral, religious, and constitutional legality of abortion, and pays little attention to the potential societal consequences of abortion laws. This paper contributes to this debate by studying the impact of abortion laws in Romania on one important societal outcome: crime and crime-related behaviors.
