Rocking the Cradle
Author: Helen Smyth
Publisher: Steele Roberts
ISBN: 9781877228162
Category : Birth control
Languages : en
Pages : 253
Book Description
This book traces the quest for contraception in New Zealand and explores the connected realms of sex and politics. By 1900 many couples had chosen to have fewer children - but contraceptive methods were limited and often desperate. In the 1930s a radical group of women set out to help people access sex information and contraception. They became the Family Planning Association, and encountered head-on entrenched moral viewpoints and fears about declining population. Often funny, sometimes tragic or bizarre, always controversial, this book investigates a relatively unexplored aspect of our lives. It offers insight into sexual attitudes, gives a timely warning against repeating past mistakes, and provides a context for future decisions on sexual and reproductive health issues.

The New New Zealand
Author: Paul Spoonley
Publisher: Massey University Press
ISBN: 0995137870
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
In this timely book, New Zealand's best-known commentator on population trends, Distinguished Professor Paul Spoonley, shows how, as New Zealand moves into the 2020s, the demographic dividends of the last 70 years are turning into deficits. Our population patterns have been disrupted. More boomers, fewer children, an ever bigger Auckland, and declining regions are the new normal. We will need new economic models, new ways of living. Spoonley says: "It is not a crisis (even if at times it feels like it), but rather something that needs to be understood and responded to. But I fear that policy-makers and politicians are not up to the challenge. That would be a crisis."
