"This
chapter focuses on the demographic changes experienced in Mexico during
the past 50 years as outcomes of its population policies....Within the
last 50 years, two very different conceptions of demographic growth and
its relationship to development have prevailed, leading to divergent
positions on population policy....The integration of population
variables into social and economic programs has not been achieved.
Consequently, population programs have become independent, pursuing
specific fertility and demographic growth objectives as goals, rather
than as mechanisms for the attainment of social and economic
change."

"In this paper I discuss the case of
the Indonesian transmigration program where a number of projects
specifically for women have been implemented since the late 1970s and
where, since the mid-1980s, more attention has been paid in mainstream
planning to women, especially in their productive capacity. I consider
the implications for women of the conceptual framework and assumptions
made by the planners. I argue that in the process of planning,
elements of the prevailing ideology of gender hierarchy are absorbed,
reapplied, and reinforced in pursuit of officially defined goals and in
the interest of greater administrative efficiency, and that merely
incorporating women into such development schemes is not sufficient by
itself to ensure that they will benefit."

about sexuality, reproduction and the social division of labour and the
way these are influenced by gender power." Family planning programs,

"For most of human
history, the politics of population has rested on the assumption that
population size and growth are essential determinants of national power
and economic strength....Today, population politics has been
transformed as governments everywhere have come to see rapid population
growth in third world countries as an obstacle to development and have
laid aside the old beliefs. In a major shift of emphasis, the old
politics of population has been replaced by the politics of family
planning."

policies of a country are not only a function of demographic phenomena,
but are also the consequence of social, economic, and political

importance in determining governmental expenditures, programs,
practices, and assistance, which in turn affect the well-being of
individuals and influence demographic trends....This chapter examines
trends, variations, and contradictions in government views and policies
that are directed at influencing fertility, which since World War II
has been a central concern and focus of most governments' interventions
in the area of population....The perceptions and policies of
governments toward fertility reported here are based on information

"The latest nationwide survey
of Chinese fertility suggests that, after rising during the mid-1980s,
fertility has fallen steadily since the late 1980s, reaching
replacement level in 1992. Through a re-study of three villages in the
northwestern province of Shaanxi, this article explores the politics
and economics of this striking demographic development in a locality
well known to the authors from previous research. Between 1988 and
mid-1993, they find, village fertility fell to new lows due to
increased emphasis on birth planning by leaders at all levels and, to a
lesser extent, economic advance that reduced already very low
childbearing aspirations. This microstudy of three ordinary Chinese
villages provides dramatic testimony to the changes that can be wrought
at the bottom of the administrative hierarchy when the top leadership
decides that rapid population growth must be
controlled."

The author discusses the history of population policy in
Mongolia, with a focus on motivations and consequences of the
government's strong pronatalist ideology. "In spite of these policies,
fertility began a sustained decline by the middle of the 1970s. This
decline intensified during the 1980s and is likely to continue during
the present decade, probably even more rapidly than in the past, since
limitations on contraceptives and abortion have been removed....There
is considerable apprehension concerning the substantial fertility
decline and its eventual impact on population growth....Some are
concerned that past interventions could be revitalized and future
government family planning programs could be extremely
limited."

sector have been the direct byproducts of broader developments in
Chinese politics, not merely a response to popular

The author analyzes "the various

optimize...resident gains....This article discusses cost recovery and
emphasizes the costs of multiculturalism as a possible basis for fees.
It then analyzes the effects of inelastic immigrant supplies in
providing an optimal tariff motivation for monopsonistically
restricting labor flows and deals with the second-best problem of
devising an optimal fee policy to accompany a possibly suboptimal
immigration quota. Next, attention turns to the role of priceable
externalities. Externalities which are expensive to price because of
transactions costs are analyzed. Finally, along with summarization of
major conclusions, the author considers if, even in the economic
interests of existing residents, entry rights should be
sold."

Royal Institute of International Affairs: London, England; Wyndham
Place Trust: London, England. Distributed by Brookings Institution,
1775 Massachusetts Avenue NW, Washington, D.C. 20036-2188. In Eng.
The author makes the case that international migration is one of
the top policy problems for European governments in the 1990s due to
such factors as the war in former Yugoslavia, the break-up of the
Soviet Union, increases in clandestine migration, and the rise in
inter-ethnic tensions. "Governments' attempts to respond to new
migration pressures while simultaneously striving to abolish internal
border controls have brought European migration policies to a critical
crossroads. Decisions taken now will have profound economic, social
and political implications for Europe in the years and decades to come.
This book tackles head-on some of the major policy challenges faced
today: immigrant integration, immigration controls, proposals to
alleviate the root-causes of migration, and refugee and asylum
policies. The author argues that only when policy-makers recognize the
reality of migration as a continuing process can more effective and
sustainable policies begin to be
developed."
