Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on almost a decade of research in the Kathmandu Valley, Planning Families in Nepal offers a compelling account of Hindu Nepali women as they face conflicting global and local ideals regarding family planning. Promoting a two-child norm, global family planning programs have disseminated the slogan, “A small family is a happy family,” throughout the global South. Jan Brunson examines how two generations of Hindu Nepali women negotiate this global message of a two-child family and a more local need to produce a son. Brunson explains that while women did not prefer sons to daughters, they recognized that in the dominant patrilocal family system, their daughters would eventually marry and be lost to other households. As a result, despite recent increases in educational and career opportunities for daughters, mothers still hoped for a son who would bring a daughter-in-law into the family and care for his aging parents. Mothers worried about whether their modern, rebellious sons would fulfill their filial duties, but ultimately those sons demonstrated an enduring commitment to living with their aging parents. In the context of rapid social change related to national politics as well as globalization—a constant influx of new music, clothes, gadgets, and even governments—the sons viewed the multigenerational family as a refuge. Throughout Planning Families in Nepal, Brunson raises important questions about the notion of “planning” when applied to family formation, arguing that reproduction is better understood as a set of local and global ideals that involve actors with desires and actions with constraints, wrought with delays, stalling, and improvisation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The success of Millennium Development Goals is dependent to a large extent on the success in addressing the population issues. Family planning has been a part of the general development policy of Nepal since the mid-1960s. The knowledge about contraception is almost universal but there is still a high unmet need among married women. Despite high demand to space or limit the birth, long acting methods account for less than three percent of the method mix. With the current pace of contraceptive prevalence rate the Millennium Development Goals seem hard to reach. Choice of a family planning method is determined by a wide range of factors. A clear understanding of these factors should increase access to family planning methods by providing informed choice. This book therefore is designed with a view to availing information to program implementers, managers and health workers about the factors that influence utilization of different family planning spacing methods.
