| Summary: | Population growth and related issues have long been on the political agenda in France in a way which distinguishes her from her European neighbours and particularly from Britain. This book explores the latest developments in population studies and the policies which spring from them. It particularly focuses on subject areas which are often ignored, such as women, birth and motherhood. Using both feminist and ecological perspectives, the contributors re-evaluate some of the standard conclusions drawn by policy-makers and re-establish the genuinely political dimension of population studies. |
