SSRN Access to Scholarly Papers

A valuable (and free!) interdisciplinary resource for academic research is the Social Science Research Network. It contains almost 350,000 abstracts and 280,000 manuscripts of scholarly articles in the areas of health, legal, political, philosophy, and rhetoric. I use it often to find the newest articles on a subject. An example of what you might find is a new article by Erika Bachiochi, “Embodied Equality: Debunking Equality Arguments for Abortion Rights,” scheduled to be published in the Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy this summer. An abstract and full text is available at:
