Global Population Policy: From Population Control to Reproductive Rights: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Global Population Policy: From Population Control to Reproductive Rights" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

The general assumption throughout history has been that a growing population is beneficial for societies. By the mid-1960s, however, the United States and other developed countries became convinced that population control was an absolute necessity, especially in the developing world. This absorbing study explains why population control is no longer the focus of global population policy and why reproductive rights and health have become the major focus. The book highlights the role that the US and other developed countries play in affecting global population policy, looking in particular at the stance of the George W. Bush administration since taking office. It also studies the influence of the UN as an international forum and explores how civil society questioned the ethics of population control. Global Population Policy will appeal to a wide audience, including readers in the fields of womens studies, development politics and international relations.

GLOBAL POPULATION POLICY Global Health Series Editors Nana K Poku and Robert - photo 1
GLOBAL POPULATION POLICY
Global Health
Series Editors: Nana K. Poku and Robert L. Ostergard, Jr.
The benefits of globalization are potentially enormous, as a result of the increased sharing of ideas, cultures, life-saving technologies and efficient production processes. Yet globalization is under trial, partly because these benefits are not yet reaching hundreds of millions of the worlds poor and partly because globalization has introduced new kinds of international problems and conflicts. Turmoil in one part of the world now spreads rapidly to others, through terrorism, armed conflict, environmental degradation or disease.
This timely series provides a robust and multi-disciplinary assessment of the asymmetrical nature of globalization. Books in the series encompass a variety of areas, including global health and the politics of governance, poverty and insecurity, gender and health and the implications of global pandemics.

CONTENTS
This book would not have been possible without some truly wonderful and intelligent people. First, I would like to thank my dissertation committee chair, Dr. Gretchen Bauer, who encouraged me to pursue the publication of my work. In addition, all the faculty members of the Political Science and International Relations department at the University of Delaware have provided me with a great deal of sage advice. When I felt like quitting, the faculty was there to offer a smile, suggestions, or other words of wisdom along the way.
Second, I want to thank my parents, Phyllis and Franklin Whaley. It is difficult to even find the words to express how much they have influenced my life. My parents encouraged me to pursue my education after my undergraduate degree when many parents would have told their children to get a real job. Their countless words of admiration and inspiration over the years have encouraged me to pursue my education to this degree.
Third, I want to thank my husband, Michael Jack Eager. Thank you for the hours upon hours you left me alone in the computer room typing. Thank you for being so proud of my accomplishments and encouraging me to pursue a doctorate degree. Thank you for working hard to support us while I pursued my educational goals. And thank you for making me laugh when I felt like crying.
Finally, I would like to thank the staff at Ashgate Publishing Limited for their assistance in getting this manuscript ready for publication. I would especially like to thank Kristin Howgate and Pauline Beavers for walking me through this process. Dr. Barbara Crane was kind enough to read the entire manuscript and provide constructive criticisms. I, however, take full responsibility for any errors or omissions.
