Samenvatting
This text provides an examination of "mizuko kuyo", a Japanese religious ritual for aborted foetuses. Popularized during the 1970s, when religious entrepreneurs published accounts of foetal wrath and spirit attacks, mizuko kuyo offers ritual atonement for women who chose to have abortions.
