Sectionalization and territorialization of rights in the USA

The article analyzes the phenomenon of new sectionalization in the United States, indicating that legal differences between states have ceased to be merely an administrative matter and have become an expression of deep cultural conflict. The author explains how party 'trifectas' (full control by one party over state government) enable the creation of coherent, radically different packages of norms regarding freedom and civil rights. The text contrasts the pluralistic concept of states as 'social laboratories' with the process of territorializing conflicts, in which geography determines access to basic medical or educational services. The overturning of the Roe v. Wade precedent is identified as the primary catalyst for these changes, leading to a drastic legal divergence regarding abortion.
