In the 1950s contraceptive use was rare and women typically spend most of their reproductive years bearing and rearing children. By 2020 fertility and contraceptive use in Asia and Latin America reached levels commonly observed in the developed world. Africa’s fertility is still high, but transitions have started in all countries. This monograph is the first to provide a comprehensive analysis of these trends and their determinants, covering changes in reproductive behaviour (e.g., use of contraception and abortion), preferences (e.g., desire to limit and space births) and the role of socioeconomic development (e.g., education). The role of government policies and in particular family planning programs is discussed in depth. Particular attention isgiven to provide a balanced assessment of several political and scientific controversies that have beset the field. As such this book provides an interesting read for a wide audience of undergraduate a | | 出版日期 | Book‘‘‘‘‘‘‘‘ 2022 | | 关键词 | Open Access; Fertility transition; Developing world; Determinants of fertility; Family planning programs | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-11840-1 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-11839-5 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-11840-1Series ISSN 2211-3215 Series E-ISSN 2211-3223 | | issn_series | 2211-3215 | | copyright | The Author(s) 2022 |
