Opis

President George W. Bush's foreign policies have raised agreat deal of controversy in the early years of the 21st century.An example of this is the reinstating of the Mexico City Policy,which limits US development funding for NGOs that either perform orpromote abortion. The policy has many effects on women and on theoperation of organisations that work with reproductive issues andwomen's health. This book offers an analysis of the aspects ofcontrol that the policy exerts at different levels. The Mexico CityPolicy is analysed from the viewpoints of development policies andwomen's role in them, bio-politics of the population and theindividual level of bodily integrity. These perspectives offer amultilevel view on the limiting aspects of the policy. Based on thedetailed analysis, it is clear that the Mexico City Policy aims toaffect women's agency and control their lives and bodies. The studyoffers a feminist perspective on development policies andinternational abortion politics. It presents fresh ideas for thoseinterested in gender aspects of international politics andreproductive rights.
