Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book documents the massive deprivation of human rights resulting from governmental censorship, manipulation, and control of reproductive health and sexuality information. The introductory chapter applies a human rights perspective to reproductive health to show that women must have full and impartial information to be able to choose services which further their goals rather than governmental policies. Examples of different types of state manipulation are provided, and demographic, biomedical, and reproductive health paradigms of contraceptive delivery programs are described. Chapter 2 identifies the binding obligations imposed on governments by the international principle that women have a right to appropriate reproductive health information. The third chapter provides a global overview of such topics as health expenditures, fertility rates, infertility, literacy and education, infant and child mortality, maternal mortality, child spacing, contraceptive usage, unmet need, abortion, HIV/AIDS, and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Chapters 4-13 present country reports for Algeria, Brazil, Chile, Ireland, Kenya, Malawi, Pakistan, the Philippines, Poland, and the US. The country reports reveal the overwhelming need of women to have access to this information and the innumerable ways in which governments control such access. The country reports also describe factors such as religion, culture, tradition, state of development, and influence of foreign donors which have an impact on access to information. Each country report ends with specific recommendations, and the concluding chapter defines seven obligations of national governments imposed by the right to information contained in international law and contains recommendations of ways nongovernmental organizations can use these obligations to lobby governments for improvements.

Download or read book Women’s Productive and Reproductive Labour written by Ayşe Arslan and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-27 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book looks at the dynamic relationship between women’s productive and reproductive work in a Global South country from a Global South perspective. Applying a feminist political economy and historical materialist approach and building on an ethnographic extended case study, it analyses the relationships between class and gender across both the productive and reproductive realms at the macro and micro levels in the case of women garment workers in Turkey. Overall, it shows that the material and social conditions of women’s productive and reproductive work co-constitute each other. It suggests that productive and social reproductive labour should be examined as an integrated process and an interrelated social relation, in constant dialogue with other social relations. This book is of interest to researchers and students in the disciplines of gender studies, labour studies, feminist economics, sociology and development studies. Given that most studies on social reproduction have largely focused on the Global North, this book is of particular interest to those in search of a more comprehensive and holistic understanding. It is also of great relevance to policymakers concerned with gender and labour issues as well as labour and feminist activists.

Book excerpt: A major obstacle to Pakistan's transformation into a dynamic, middle-income economy is underinvestment in its people, particularly women. The role of women in Pakistan is complex: in many social contexts, women are accorded esteem and importance; but on most counts, the status of women is among the lowest in the world, including the rest of South Asia. This report documents women's status and shows that the gap between Pakistan and other developing countries has increased over time. It examines the interactions between human resource development, women's welfare and productivity, and economic development. The report suggests ways to increase the participation of women as providers and beneficiaries in education, family planning and health services. It recommends several approaches to improve women's access to extension, credit, new technology, inputs, markets and formal sector employment. It also recommends removing the overt legal and regulatory discrimination against them that now reinforces a limited view of their potential. It notes that women's organizations can serve as useful channels for service delivery and sources of group support. Finally, it emphasizes that political leadership and the mass media can play a vital role in improving women's opportunities and hence their contribution to development.

Download or read book Girls' Schooling, Women's Autonomy and Fertility Change in South Asia written by Roger Jeffery and published by SAGE Publications Pvt. Limited. This book was released on 1996-08-05 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eleven articles explore the interrelated issues of women's autonomy, girls' schooling, and fertility reduction in South Asia. The contributors use census and survey data from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh to challenge the notion that there is a universal and causal relationship between rising levels of schooling and declining levels of fertility, and that schooling enhances female autonomy. The volume concludes that resources should be devoted to the spread of education, but not at the expense of contraceptive and maternal/child health services.
