    Information provided on Edward Elgar Publishing's website:

    This pertinent book investigates how governments are involved in human reproduction. Adopting a multidisciplinary approach, the book gathers crucial insights from the fields of sociology, law, political science and demography to better understand reproduction policy in the twenty-first century.

    Arguing that reproduction policy is a regulatory domain of the welfare state, expert authors from across the globe analyse cases concerning sexuality education, contraception, abortion, pregnancy care, medically assisted reproduction and related policies. Cross-country and cross-policy comparisons reveal how ideologies, policy goals, and instruments in this domain are interlinked, and show where these interrelations contradict. Ultimately, Reproduction Policy in the Twenty-First Century highlights the need for further comparative academic work on reproduction policy, recommending a future research agenda which will influence the creation of policy landscapes that support the reproductive welfare of all.
