- Description
- The author presents an assessment of recent research and theory, and foregrounds new thinking about 'family', parenting, childhood and personal life. She examines factors such as gender, race, ethnic identity and new sexual lifestyles in relation to cultural customs, government policies and social inequalities. She explores global dimensions, including the impact of population policies on fertility in several nations: ethical dilemmas associated with reproductive technologies among different cultures: interdependencies between rich and poor nations through the globalization of domestic care: and transnational marriage strategies.

- Description
- The estimates on maternal mortality presented in this report are the sixth in a series of exercises by the United Nations agencies. Considering that only a third of countries are characterized as having a complete civil registration system with good attribution of cause of death, it is imperative that countries with incomplete civil .registration systems take steps to strengthen those systems. This will tremendously improve the estimation of maternal mortality and monitoring of the Millennium Development Goal (MDG) 5: Improve maternal health. The two targets for assessing MDG 5 are reducing the maternal mortality ratio (MMR) by three quarters between 1990 and 2015, and achieving universal access to reproductive health by 2015.
