Abstract

Could we speak about conflict between prolife and prochoice movement around the right for abortion in Croatia, in Zagreb as about the postsecular conflict? How are the frameworks of the prolife and prochoice conflict defined in the public debate on abortion on the specific case of the March for Life in Zagreb? I have based on the definition of postsecular conflict from Kristina Stoeckl. In my research I have focused on the conflict between prolife and prochoice movement in the protest "Hod za život u Zagrebu" and on the dominant topics of the conflict, argumentation strategies used by both sides of conflicts and prolife / prochoice framing.

I have based on the qualitative content analysis in combination with the qualitative framework analysis of the articles from five local (Croatian) newspaper.
