In the period of the 1950s and 1960s, the situation in Slovakia in the aspect of demographic development was very different from that of the Czech part of the republic. Marriage and birth rates declined throughout the country, but Slovakia maintained a more positive population trend. Slovak society was specific for a higher level of fertility than the Czechoslovak average, and the rate of fertility decline was also lower. This development accelerated in the first half of 1958, when the adoption of the law on abortion became more significant. However, the natural increase in population in Slovakia continued to be noticeably higher in 1959. Local differences within Slovakia are also interesting. In some regions, a high birth rate was recorded (e.g. in the Prešov, Žilina and Košice regions), while elsewhere the situation was negative (Bratislava). In this regional context, the problem of abortion and abortion commissions should also be analysed. In this paper I provide some regional differences in the activities and approaches of abortion commissions and regional differences in the approach to abortion based on the preserved sources.
