Birth control and feminism.Linda Gordon's classic study, The Moral Property of Women, is the most complete history of birth control ever written. It covers the entire history of the intense controversies about reproductive rights that have raged in the United States for more than 150 years, from the earliest attempts of women to organize for the legal control of their bodies to the effects of second-wave feminism. Gordon defines the role that birth control has played in society's attitudes toward women, sexuality, and gender equality, arguing that reproductive control has always been central to women's status. She shows how opposition to it has long been part of the conservative opposition to gender equality.History of birth control politics in AmericaBirth controlUnited StatesHistoryContraceptionSexualityReproductive MedicineReproductive RightsBirth controlHistory.Contraception.Sexuality.Reproductive Medicine.Reproductive Rights.363.9/6/0973Gordon Linda789702Gordon Linda789702MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910956919503321The moral property of women4358312UNINA04569nam 2200565 a 450 991096656160332120251116181940.094-006-0112-3(CKB)2550000001046765(EBL)3327207(SSID)ssj0001176338(PQKBManifestationID)11627228(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001176338(PQKBWorkID)11129899(PQKB)10458419(MiAaPQ)EBC3327207(Au-PeEL)EBL3327207(CaPaEBR)ebr10661290(OCoLC)929118323(BIP)41564548(BIP)41564546(EXLCZ)99255000000104676520130304d2012 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrA critical perspective on the reform of Dutch social security law the case of the life course arrangement /door Anja Eleveld1st ed.[Amsterdam?] Leiden University Press20121 online resource (296 p.)Meijers Reeks/LUPDescription based upon print version of record.90-8728-174-9 Includes bibliographical references and index.pt. 1.

Governmentality and the constructionof the new worker -- pt. 5. Main findings, conclusion and outlook.Dutch social security law has changed during the last decades. Values of equality and solidarity, which traditionally underpin social security law, are slowly being replaced by the value of individual responsibility. This transformation is embodied in the Life Course Arrangement, an individual savings scheme for (new) social risks that was introduced in Dutch social security law in 2006. In 2013 this arrangement will be replaced by the Vitality Arrangement. How can the establishment of the idea of individual savings schemes in traditional collective social security law be explained? And is it possible to criticize those changes without reverting to some notion of justice?The introduction of the Life Course Arrangement serves as a paradigmatic case for this study.Based on a (juridical) discourse analysis of a selection of (policy) texts and interviews with key actors involved in the policy process, this study shows that the establishment of the idea of individual savings schemes in traditional Dutch collective social security law was, amongst other things, the result of the introduction of the new signifiers 'life course' and 'life course perspective' in the social security discourse. These signifiers made people see things in a different way and constructed a new space of representation that enabled the reconciliation of formerly opposite views. For example, the new discourse that emerged was structured around the fantasy that increased labor market participation and more time for care and/or leisure are reconcilable. The study also shows how the Life Course Arrangement emerged in an atmosphere of antagonism and disagreement. Yet, due to a strong aging society narrative the idea of individual savings schemes was able to survive in Dutch social security law.The introduction of the Life Course Arrangement is criticized for ignoring the voices of those who joined the earlier 'life course discourse coalition' and for constructing a self responsible life planner as a new governable subject. The study argues that this subject must be distinguished from the ethical subject who strives for a genuine access to freedom practices. The insights gained in this study can both improve the methodological development of research that is based on discourse theory and incite policymakers and social lawyers to rethink recent social security reforms.
