In Intended Consequences, Donald T. Critchlow deftly chronicles how the government's involvement in contraception and abortion evolved into one of the most bitter, partisan controversies in American political history. The growth of the feminist movement in the late 1960's fundamentally altered the debate over the federal family planning movement, shifting its focus from population control directed by established interests in the philanthropic community to highly polarized pro-abortion and anti-abortion groups mobilized at the grass-roots level. And when the Supreme Court granted women the Constitutional right to legal abortion in 1973, what began as a bi-partisan, quiet revolution during the administrations of Kennedy and Johnson exploded into a contentious argument over sexuality, welfare, the role of women, and the breakdown of traditional family values. Intended Consequences encompasses over four decades of political history, examining everything from the aftermath of the Republican "moral revolution" during the Reagan and Bush years to the current culture wars concerning unwed motherhood, homosexuality, and the further protection of women's abortion rights. Critchlow's carefully balanced appraisal of federal birth control and abortion policy reveals that despite the controversy, the family planning movement has indeed accomplished much in the way of its intended goal--the reduction of population growth in many parts of the world. Written with authority, fresh insight, and impeccable research, Intended Consequences skillfully unfolds the history of how the federal government found its way into the private bedrooms of the American family. 606 $aBirth control$xGovernment policy$zUnited States 606 $aAbortion$xGovernment policy$zUnited States 606 $aFamily Planning Policy 606 $aPublic Policy 606 $aAbortion, Legal 606 $aGovernment 606 $aContraception 606 $aSocial Control, Formal 606 $aFinancing, Government 606 $aGovernment Regulation 606 $aPolitics 606 $aHealth Care Economics and Organizations 606 $aSocial Sciences 606 $aReproductive Techniques 606 $aSocial Control Policies 606 $aSociology 606 $aAbortion, Induced 606 $aOrganizations 606 $aFinancing, Organized 606 $aHealth Care 606 $aPolicy 606 $aEconomics 606 $aAnthropology, Education, Sociology and Social Phenomena 606 $aObstetric Surgical Procedures 606 $aTherapeutics 606 $aSurgical Procedures, Operative 606 $aAnalytical, Diagnostic and Therapeutic Techniques and Equipment 615 0$aBirth control$xGovernment policy 615 0$aAbortion$xGovernment policy 615 2$aFamily Planning Policy 615 2$aPublic Policy 615 2$aAbortion, Legal 615 2$aGovernment 615 2$aContraception 615 2$aSocial Control, Formal 615 2$aFinancing, Government 615 2$aGovernment Regulation 615 2$aPolitics 615 2$aHealth Care Economics and Organizations 615 2$aSocial Sciences 615 2$aReproductive Techniques 615 2$aSocial Control Policies 615 2$aSociology 615 2$aAbortion, Induced 615 2$aOrganizations 615 2$aFinancing, Organized 615 2$aHealth Care 615 2$aPolicy 615 2$aEconomics 615 2$aAnthropology, Education, Sociology and Social Phenomena 615 2$aObstetric Surgical Procedures 615 2$aTherapeutics 615 2$aSurgical Procedures, Operative 615 2$aAnalytical, Diagnostic and Therapeutic Techniques and Equipment 676 $a363.9/6/0973 700 $aCritchlow$b Donald T.$f1948-$0119503 801 0$bStDuBDS 801 1$bStDuBDS 801 2$bUkPrAHLS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454595803321 996 $aIntended Consequences$92054381 997 $aUNINA
