| Description | This volume describes the sentiments and sexual mores that lead parents to kill their unborn daughters. The contributors explore how reproductive technologies are misused at the family, community and state levels. They highlight both the participation and denial of various authorities dealing with reproduction, health services and female foeticide. Their engagement with the state is analysed in the context of colonial policies, the adoption law, family planning programmes and the Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques (PNDT) Act of 1994 and its amendment in 2002. . |
