Fragmentation and reproductive freedom: federally subsidized family planning services, 1960-80.

This paper analyzes the evolution of the federal family planning program from 1960 to 1980. Political pressure to offer family planning raised the question how best to organize services. Long-standing providers preferred a categorical approach in order to maintain a diverse political coalition for an historically invisible service. In addition, categorical funding meant financial support for non-traditional providers. A compelling argument was also made for service integration. Given an expanded definition of health and the medicalization of contraceptive technology, the health delivery system presented itself as the appropriate service provider. Neither group prevailed. By 1980, federally supported family planning services were provided in autonomous clinics but also were integrated into existing maternal and child health programs. The debate continues but, under the Reagan Administration, terms and motivations differ from those of the past.

Withholding of population funds, 13 August 1987.

The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) withheld from the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) $25 million appropriated for the Fund by the United States Congress. This was the third year that funds had been withheld. As in earlier years, the Reagan administration objected to UNFPA support for China. It viewed China's family planning program, which emphasized the importance of limiting family size to one child, as sanctioning coercive abortions.

Immigration and ageing.

"This paper aims to provide an overview of immigration and ageing, and to highlight some implications of the numbers and characteristics of the immigrant elderly for the development of policies for aged care [in Australia]. Particular attention is given to the issues of demographic ageing, family support and institutionalisation." The author uses data from recent official and other published sources to examine the elderly immigrant population by birthplace and racial origin, sex, proportion institutionalized, and proportion handicapped. It is found that "insufficient recognition of the widespread lack of fluency in English among the ethnic minority aged is the greatest obstacle to achieving adequate provision for their needs."
