Vital Conjunctures Revisited -- $tIndex 330 $aIn the last forty years anthropologists have made major contributions to understanding the heterogeneity of reproductive trends and processes underlying them. Fertility transition, rather than the story of the triumphant spread of Western birth control rationality, reveals a diversity of reproductive means and ends continuing before, during, and after transition. This collection brings together anthropological case studies, placing them in a comparative framework of compositional demography and conjunctural action.  The volume addresses major issues of inequality and distribution which shape population and social structures, and in which fertility trends and the formation and size of families are not decided solely or primarily by reproduction. 410 0$aFertility, reproduction, and sexuality ;$vv. 36. 606 $aFertility, Human$vCross-cultural studies 606 $aHuman reproduction$vCross-cultural studies 606 $aDemographic anthropology$vCase studies 610 $aDemography 610 $ahistory 610 $aAfrica 615 0$aFertility, Human 615 0$aHuman reproduction 615 0$aDemographic anthropology 676 $a304.6/32 700 $aWalters$b Sarah$4auth$01451438 702 $aKreager$b Philip 702 $aBochow$b Astrid 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910765895603321 996 $aFertility, conjuncture, and difference$93651746 997 $aUNINA
