Women's Equality, Demography and Public Policies: A Comparative Perspective
Alena Heitlinger
This study assesses the comparability between policies promoting women's equality and the reversal of fertility decline. Based on comparative data from Canada, Australia, Britain and to a more limited extent the United States, Alena Heitlinger examines the impact of major international instruments promoting women's equality, and national similarities and differences in women's policy machinery, provision for maternity and childcare, fiscal assistance for families with children, and the costs and benefits of fertility-related measures vis-a-vis immigration-related measures. Other titles by Heitlinger include "Women and State Socialism" and "Reproduction, Medicine and the Socialist State".
