Profile:

Rachael Johnstone joined the Department of Political Science at 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 in 2021. Her research explores intersections between Canadian politics, public policy, and law. To date, her work has focused predominantly on reproductive rights, exploring the ways they have been shaped through federalism, the Charter, public policy, and social movement activity. This work includes a book, After Morgentaler: The Politics of Abortion in Canada, published by UBC Press in 2017, which investigates the political, legal, medical, and social regulation of abortion following the landmark R. v. Morgentaler decision (1988) that decriminalized abortion in Canada. More recently, with support from a SSHRC Insight Development Grant, she has begun exploring reproductive politics as it is experienced by politicians themselves. The right to qualify as a representative in public office in one of democracy鈥檚 fundamental rights, but equality issues relating to reproduction continue to plague these offices. She is currently working on a manuscript, Baby Steps? Towards Family Friendly Legislatures, which asks what family-friendly legislatures can and should look like. In what ways might institutions and policies change in pursuit of inclusivity? And, if they cannot change, exactly how democratic are our institutions?

She is also a co-applicant on a SSHRC Insight Development studying the regulation of online hate speech in Canada, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.

Her research has appeared in a variety of leading journals, including the Canadian Journal of Political Science, Canadian Public Administration, the Canadian Journal of Women and the Law, and the Journal of Canadian Studies.
