Ross Foreword: The Family Planning Program Revolution in Perspective The family planning programs carried out in many developing countries from the 1950s through the 1980s represent one of the important social experiments of the post–World War II period, but the details of their operations, their commonalities, and their differences have been insufficiently archived given the programs’ day-to- day pressures and the large numbers of people involved. This volume helps fill this gap with much useful information and informed analysis. The programs were complex undertakings in difficult settings that had little prior experience to draw upon. Not surprisingly, as the case studies described here demon- strate, no single strategy was available that could be employed across these diverse situations, and procedures that were successful in one country did not necessarily function well in another. However, a common thread wove through the multiplicity of approaches: more often than not, an effective starting point was built from insights into a particular country’s social, economic, and cultural settings along with a realistic appraisal of resources available and the political will to move forward. Many of these efforts also demonstrate that persistence is important. For a program to encounter unforeseen problems was not unusual, but those countries that adopted a trial-and-error mentality could often overcome these setbacks and get the program back on track. The case studies also indicate that developing a successful program was as much an art as a science. The key ingredient was being able to distinguish when a some- what radical new approach was needed and when only some fine-tuning was neces- sary. That wisdom cannot be taught. However, many countries were fortunate in that their leaders and those who helped develop and run the programs had this skill at crucial times in a program’s development. While not a focus of this book, the family planning programs had several important, indirect effects on the field of population studies that merit attention as part of the record. First, uncertainty about the programs’ worth and how to measure the extent of their success spurred a great deal of research on the measuring and modeling of fertility and contraceptive practice, on fecundity issues, on the effect of marriage patterns on fertility, and on a host of related topics. Investigators developed new meth- ods of collecting data and measuring these dimensions, and the challenge of making X | FOREWORD: THE FAMILY PLANNING PROGRAM REVOLUTION IN PERSPECTIVE good estimates in the face of incomplete and fragmentary information spurred a num- ber of advances in formal demography. Second, the programs greatly advanced the science of evaluation. How did one demonstrate that the programs were working in the face of the social and economic changes also ongoing in most countries? Researchers developed a number of new evidence-based techniques, many built on the new models of fertility and fecundity, while others advanced statistical practice in contextual or multilevel analysis. Third, the programs led demographers to work with specialists from many other disciplines, including public health, economics, sociology, political science, and psy- chology. These disciplinary perspectives became key ingredients of population stud- ies and, in turn, the demographic perspective influenced the other fields. The collab- orations also widened the subject matter scope of demography, making it much more open to pursuing broader questions of health, economic status, family dynamics, and other facets of societal functioning. For example, a look at the current programs of the annual meetings of the Population Association of America as compared with those of the 1950s reveals how the field has expanded to tackle a wide array of health and societal issues. Finally, the family planning efforts attracted many new and talented people to the field of population studies. Motivated in part by concern about rapid population growth, which was highly publicized at the time, many students from different disci- plines chose to undertake graduate work in

  • The Ban on Abortion and the Politicization of Women's Bodies
    THE BAN ON ABORTION AND THE POLITICIZATION OF WOMEN’S BODIES IN EARLY REPUBLICAN TURKEY BETWEEN 1923-1946 By Oguz Soylu Submitted to Central European University Department of History In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Associate Professor Constantin Iordachi Second Reader: Assistant Professor Noemi Levy-Aksu CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2014 Statement of Copyright “Copyright in the text of this thesis rests with the Author.

After the proclamation of the Republic of Turkey on October 29, 1923, the early republican regime granted many modernized rights to women within the project of women’s emancipation. However, at the same time, the new regime criminalized abortion and initiated strong pro-natalist policies by bringing reproduction under the state’s biological control. In addition, new legislations passed contained some articles which had unequal treatment of women and put them in a secondary position in their private lives, and new educational structures directed girls to take gendered lessons to be ideal mothers and virtuous wives.

    World Fertility and Family Planning 2020 Highlights ST/ESA/SER.A/440 Department of Economic and Social Affairs Population Division World Fertility and Family Planning 2020 Highlights United Nations New York, 2020 The Department of Economic and Social Affairs of the United Nations Secretariat is a vital interface between global policies in the economic, social and environmental spheres and national action. The Department works in three main interlinked areas: (i) it compiles, generates and analyses a wide range of economic, social and environmental data and information on which States Members of the United Nations draw to review common problems and take stock of policy options; (ii) it facilitates the negotiations of Member States in many intergovernmental bodies on joint courses of action to address ongoing or emerging global challenges; and (iii) it advises interested Governments on the ways and means of translating policy frameworks developed in United Nations conferences and summits into programmes at the country level and, through technical assistance, helps build national capacities. The Population Division of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs provides the international community with timely and accessible population data and analysis of population trends and development outcomes for all countries and areas of the world. To this end, the Division undertakes regular studies of population size and characteristics and of all three components of population change (fertility, mortality and migration). Founded in 1946, the Population Division provides substantive support on population and development issues to the United Nations General Assembly, the Economic and Social Council and the Commission on Population and Development. It also leads or participates in various interagency coordination mechanisms of the United Nations system.

  • Political Islam, Marriage, and Fertility: Evidence from a Natural Experiment1
    Political Islam, Marriage, and Fertility: Evidence from a Natural Experiment1 Ozan Aksoy University College London Francesco C. Billari Bocconi University The plethora of pathways leading to family formation decisions has made the causal assessment of the influence of politics and religion on marriage and fertility difficult. The authors exploit the unique op- portunity offered by the emergence of a new political party in Turkey, and the electoral features of the country’s majoritarian system, to es- timate the effect of politics and religion on marriage and fertility. The AK Parti (Justice and Development Party), with an explicitly Islamist platform, won Turkish elections in 2002, taking both a pro-natalist and pro-family stance, with increasing welfare expenditures and an explicit neoliberal agenda on macroeconomic issues. The authors an- alyze the results of the 2004 local elections using a regression discon- tinuity design and show that fertility and marriage rates have been significantly higher in districts where the AK Parti won. They argue that increased local welfare provision is the main explanatory mech- anism, also discussing other alternative and complementary mecha- nisms. Marriage and fertility are crucial ingredients of social reproduction. Not sur- prisingly, therefore, they have long occupied a central role in political dis- course and have at times become the direct aim of political action through 1 This article benefited from comments at the 2016 AlpPop and Population Association of America Conferences and seminars at Linköping (Institute for Analytical Sociology), Leipzig (Sociology), Oxford (Nuffield College), and the University of California, Los An- © 2018 by The University of Chicago.

Fortunately, while popula- tion growth is currently largely under control, sub-Saharan Africa and parts of South Asia still face massive increases with very serious potential consequences.1 Paradoxically, however, a new problem is emerging, with its key locus in Pacific Asia (the term used in this book to refer to Asian countries with a Pacific littoral).
