4463 - Framing Reproductive Decision-making
Tue, August 13, 2:30 to 4:10pm, Sheraton New York, Floor: Third Floor, Liberty 5Session Submission Type: Paper Session 100min
Description
How individuals, couples, and families make reproductive decisions is complex, and such discussions form how we think about the use of reproductive technologies, the formation of public policy, and the shaping of reproductive trajectories. These papers together highlight the role of gender, risk, and policy in framing how reproductive decisions get made. From the highly gendered forms of responsibility that emerge in decision-making about contraception and abortion to the broader policy context that produces the options from which people have to choose, these papers help us make sense of the contemporary contours of reproductive decision-making.
