In the last forty years anthropologists have made major
contributions to understanding the heterogeneity of reproductive
trends and processes underlying them. Fertility transition, rather
than the story of the triumphant spread of Western birth control
rationality, reveals a diversity of reproductive means and ends
continuing before, during, and after transition. This collection
brings together anthropological case studies, placing them in a
comparative framework of compositional demography and conjunctural
action. The volume addresses major issues of inequality and
distribution which shape population and social structures, and in
which fertility trends and the formation and size of families are
not decided solely or primarily by reproduction.
