Women's rights are often treated as mere appendages to great questions of war, peace, poverty, and economic development. But as networks of religious fundamentalists, feminists, and bureaucrats struggle to remake sexual and childbearing norms worldwide, the battle to control women's bodies has become a high-stakes enterprise, with the United States often supporting the most reactionary forces.

In a work of incisive cultural analysis and deep reporting, Michelle Goldberg shows how the emancipation of women has become the key human rights struggle of the twenty-first century. The Means of Reproduction travels through four continents, examining issues such as abortion, female circumcision, and Asia's missing girls to show how the battle over women's bodies has been globalized and how, too often, the United States has joined sworn enemies such as Iran and Sudan in an axis of repression. Reporting with unique insight from both the rarefied realm of international policy and from individual women's lives, Goldberg elucidates the economic, demographic, and health consequences of women's oppression, which affect more than half the world's population.

As The Means of Reproduction reveals, the conflict between self-determination and patriarchal tradition has come to define pressing questions of global development. Empowering women is the key to retarding the progress of AIDS, curbing overpopulation, and helping the third world climb out of poverty, but attempts to improve women's status elicit fierce opposition from conservatives who see women's submission as key to their own national or religious identity.

From the anticommunist genesis of America's attempts to stem population growth in poor countries to the current worldwide attack on women's rights as a decadent Western imposition, Goldberg explores the interplay between the great issues of our time and the politics of sex and childbearing. Finally, The Means of Reproduction shows how women, strengthened by a solidarity that transcends borders, are fighting for freedom.(less)

Goldberg's book is an overview of the international battle over women's reproductive rights throughout the last 50-60 years.

The author clearly has a bias on this issue. She clearly thinks that reproductive rights and family planning are good and necessary. She is clearly pro-choice, pro-birth control, and anti-oppression.

The author clearly has a bias on this issue. She clearly thinks that reproductive rights and family planning are good and necessary. She is clearly pro-choice, pro-birth control, and anti-oppression. I happen to agree with her. However, I greatly admired that, despite her bias, she always included the arguments and reasonings of the people on the other side of the fence. I felt that she did so without condescension or judgment. I think that this is so important in the dialogue about such hot button topics. Personally, I'm tired of the "'I disagree with you,' 'Well, if you disagree with me, you're a poopy face'" rhetoric that seems to have taken over the U.S. national stage in the last 20-30 years. It's refreshing to read reasoned arguments.

For example, I admired Goldberg's restraint in her chapter about female circumcision. This is a topic that I can barely even stand to think about. I could hardly even read the chapter. The thought of these procedures being done to young girls makes me sick to my stomach and furious. But I am grateful to Goldberg for including an even-toned explanation of why ANY woman would be for such procedures. I have never understood it before. I still disagree, but it's the first time that I've understood where such women are even coming from.

But I digress. Overall, I found this book very interesting. It can be a little dry in parts, but I still found it fascinating to learn how the issue of reproductive rights even got started and found its way onto the international stage (pressure from the U.S., perhaps unsurprisingly). It was even more fascinating to learn about the mistakes the early movement made, which sowed a lot of the seeds that started the backlash against it. It was appalling to learn how much power the U.S. has in shaping the future of these issues in the world. And it was particularly interesting to learn a little bit about how these issues are viewed/handled in the rest of the world. The chapter on India's rampant problem with gender-specific abortions was riveting!

I would hope that this book would be a tough read for anyone - the tendency throughout the world of societies to oppress women as a means to control scary cultural changes should depress/frighten any person, or at the very least any female. But I think that the book is a valuable read for anyone looking to understand these issues.(less)

I suppose I had some idea about a lot of the ground it covers, but never to the point where it really hit home exactly what is at stake.

It starts out with the infuriating consequences that crop up when abortion is criminalized. The fact that women have died of ectopic pregnancies and incomplete miscarriages because doctors can't intervene before the fetus is technically dead is pretty sickening. In El Salvador, women coming in with miscarriages are reported to the attorney general for investigation. The whole idea of "uterus as crime scene" is pretty abhorrent to me though I guess Utah likes it. I don't understand the mindset behind forcing a 9-year-old to carry an incestuous rape pregnancy.

From there the book moves on to attempts to rein in a possible overpopulation crisis worldwide. While it seems to be a noble goal that will give women a chance to control over their fertility, the people planning this seem to have cut the women themselves out of the equation hoping that the mere presence of contraception and abortion services would do the trick. I didn't know that at one point the Catholic church came close to reversing their long stance against contraception (apparently it is "intrinsically evil" which is a label not even applied to murder) but Pius XI issued Casti Connubii which pretty much concluded that since contraception had always been a no-no, it should stay that way otherwise the papacy might be seen as fallible.

After that it's a continuation of an international movement in women's rights and the US's about-face where it tries to undo all of the good it did by disseminating information and resources towards women's health, backpedaling furiously in order to placate the newly minted Christian conservative movement and leaving a lot of dead women in its wake. Then there's a chapter on female circumcision and all of the attendant horrors that accompany it.

Then comes the aftermath of population control where technology gets ahead of cultural enlightenment. With a more expedient way to check for female fetuses, most Indian castes used the advent of the ultrasound to weed out the unwanted girls to make room for boys in their two children households thus leading to wildly skewed sex ratios. The huge economic cost of girls through their dowries means that they can be treated terribly, assuming they're allowed to be born at all. Only by raising the status of women above chattel will girl children be valued enough to stop culling them so wantonly. India and China will likely face some pretty rough unrest as a result of the gender imbalance. It's scary to think of how it will all play out.

This book does a good job of covering the bases of what happens when women are second-class citizens who don't control their own bodies. As with most other books on the same topic, the conclusion is that women have the power to save the world but only if they (we) have equal rights.(less)

Golberg is a smart and entertaining author; she manages to skim the history of US and Global policy on reproductive rights in a cogent compelling way.
The book starts out with the most controversial subject- the history of abortion and wrestles through a myriad of sticky issues surrounding it like cultural relativism, poverty, and neoimperialism.

The book starts ends up on much more neutral territory- which seems like a backwards structural strategy for attracting or persuading disparate readers...more

A very interesting, though somewhat irritating, look at the history of reproductive rights for women over the past 50-60 years. It's extremely well researched, and irritating only in that Goldberg introduces us to scholars and NGO workers and then, many pages later, refers to them by last name only (with no context). I finally gave up trying to remember who was who.

The book concludes with some very powerful statements. "In a perfect world, the prospect of Malthusian doom would not be required to...more

Most books I've read have focused the struggle on the US, but this book really brings into view the larger picture.

Goldberg starts by going into the history of the global reproductive rights movement, which really grew out of a desire to stem population growth back in the 1950s. The US was actually a large proponent of helping other countries to better plan their families, and so started funding for contraception, etc. I found it interesting (and sad) that by the time the right wing backlash occurred in the 1980s, family planning was something that many developing countries actively wanted, and when the US pulled funding, many clinics started closing down.

The book covers a lot more ground than just contraception and abortion access. Goldberg devotes a chapter to Female Genital Mutilation and the attempts to curb the practice. She also covers the skewed sex ratios in India and Asia, where more boys are born than girls due to selective abortion of females.

I like how Goldberg really brings together all aspects of the reproductive rights movement, and argues that without woman's empowerment, the population issue will never be solved. Women cannot effectively plan their families, stand up against FGM or stop the selective abortion of females if they don't have any agency. Goldberg also shows how birth rates actually increase (up to about replacement level) in countries where women have full rights and abilities to take paid maternal leave, which is something that countries such as Italy may want to take into account.

Another important issue is that when the US swings from right to left, women are affected worldwide. Whether or not you are pro-choice or anti-choice, woman's clinics close when the right wing comes to power. This affects women's ability to obtain pap smears, maternal care, and, yes, safe abortions. (Illegal abortions are still a huge killer of women globally.)

The only thing missing from the book, but understandably due to the scope, is a deeper look into the HIV/AIDS crisis and how it disproportionally affects women. Goldberg briefly covers it in the conclusion of the book.

Overall an excellent book for those who want to get a bigger picture of the global struggle for women's rights and reproductive freedom.(less)

This was a book that I might refer to as a vegetable of nonfiction—a healthy book to have read, but often hard to get through due to the dry prose style. Goldberg writes about a variety of issues that relate to women’s health—abortion, population control, etc.—and describes how culture wars between the East and the West, the First and Third World, and, in some cases, liberals and conservatives are undermining women’s autonomy and therefore, often, the social fabric of society.

One of the most important books I have read in a long time. Makes the argument that women's rights are so fundamental that without them there is no freedom for anyone. Goldberg uses many examples to make her point, to worldwide abortion and reproductive rights and lack of rights to discussions of population problems from overpopulation to the great bane of the right wing--the "demographic winter."

I am rereading and taking more notes because the information in this book is essential.
