Abstract

"The Army was much embarrassed by the absence of the cavalry," Robert E. Lee wrote of the Gettysburg campaign, stirring a controversy that has never died. Lee's statement was an indirect indictment of General James Ewell Brown ("Jeb") Stuart, who was the cavalry.

Abstract

La promocion de la planificacion familiar en los paises pobres fue uno de los grandes exitos del desarrollo de los ultimos 50 anos. Este libro presenta una documentacion historica y discute importantes ensenanzas para las iniciativas actuales y futuras de la comunidad internacional. Su proposito es resaltar las principales caracteristicas del movimiento, sus logros y los debates mas importantes a su alrededor, algunos de los cuales persisten aun y tienen implicaciones importantes para el futuro de los servicios de salud reproductiva. El libro presenta 23 casos de estudio de paises que documentan las diversas formas en que se superaron los obstaculos y se logro el exito. Tambien ofrece una orientacion valiosa para los objetivos y respuestas de politicas a los emergentes desafios mundiales relacionados con la salud. This book is directly available from the publisher Mayol Ediciones Calle 131 A No. 56-62 Bogota Colombia info@mayolediciones.com The striking upsurge in population growth rates in developing countries at the close of World War II gained force during the next decade. From the 1950s to the 1970s, scholars and advocacy groups publicized the trend and drew troubling conclusions about its economic and ecological implications. Private educational and philanthropic organizations, government, and international organizations joined in the struggle to reduce fertility. Three decades later this movement has seen changes beyond anyone's most optimistic dreams, and global demographic stabilization is expected in this century. 'The Global Family Planning Revolution' preserves the remarkable record of this success. Its editors and authors offer more than a historical record. They disccuss important lessons for current and future initiatives of the international community. Some programs succeeded while others initially failed, and the analyses provide valuable guidance for emerging health-related policy objectives and responses to global challenges.
