Abstract

The author reports on China's 1988 Two per Thousand Survey, using information from papers presented at an international seminar in Beijing that focused on fertility and contraception. "Seminar papers confirmed the high quality of the survey and its potential for research on topics ranging from rates of sterility to the demography of Tibet. They also suggested that family planning in China is moving on to a wider agenda. The interest of family planners is turning to issues of health, motivation for family planning, and contraception prior to a couple's first birth.", (excerpt)
