  • How Foundations' Field-Building Helped the Reproductive Health
    How Foundations’ Field-Building Helped the Reproductive Health Movement Change the International Population and Development Paradigm By Perrin Liana Elkind A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Ann Swidler, Chair Professor Kim Voss Professor Harley Shaiken Fall 2015 Abstract How Foundations’ Field-Building Helped the Reproductive Health Movement Change the International Population and Development Paradigm by Perrin Liana Elkind Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology University of California, Berkeley Professor Ann Swidler, Chair Scholars have demonstrated that foundation grants channel social movements by encouraging professionalization and favoring moderate tactics, but they have overlooked critical mechanisms of foundation influence. Advancing Tim Bartley’s (2007) field-building framework, I identify new mechanisms—including grants and activities other than grantmaking—through which five foundations helped channel the international Reproductive Health movement between 1990 and 2005, shaping its composition, trajectory, and outcomes. The first of its kind, this study combines an analysis of an original data set including 8,103 grants made by five major philanthropic foundations from 1990-2005, interviews with foundation staff and leadership, and archival data, with an historical narrative of the population field and the Reproductive Health movement. I explain foundations’ roles in the Reproductive Health movement’s successful campaign targeting the 1994 United Nations International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD). There the movement transformed the population field’s frame from Family Planning—reducing fertility through increasing access to contraceptives—to Reproductive Health—meeting women’s broader reproductive health needs and advancing gender equality.

MacArthur Foundation October 2010 Global Migration & Human Mobility BACKGROUND Economic globalization has dramatically increased the rate of migration around the world. This phenomenon, while clearly important, is not well understood, analyzed, or regulated. The movement of goods and capital is governed by international agreements; the movement of people, largely, is not. In the early 2000s, migration caused controversy and concern world­ wide. Large­scale immigration to the United States (from Mexico) and to Europe (from Muslim and African nations) fueled a popular backlash. Regional conflicts produced high numbers of refugees and displaced persons. Following the events of September 11, 2001, migration was increasingly viewed through the lens of security concerns, and the human rights of migrants often suffered.
