@phdthesis{theses_frw1237, author = {M.A.M Hemsteede}, title = {Sex \& Population: It takes two to tango!}, year = {2011}, abstract = {Topic: After the ICPD in 1994 the focus within the population field shifted from demographic targets towards individuals with sexual, reproductive rights and health (SRRH). Have sex and population issues become more integrated since then? Research aim: Describe the state of research in the combined field of sex and population. Research questions: How much and what kind of research has been published in this combined field since 1994 (focusing on topics, theories, methods, units of analysis and geographical locations)? Methods: Systematic database search and qualitative text analysis. Data: Databases (Popline, JSTOR) were searched for the hits combining specific search terms on population and sexuality issues. From 96 publications abstracts were analyzed. Main Findings: Not much (empirical) research combined both topics. Focus is mainly on women and health. Attention for cultural differences is marginal. Recommendations: Adopt a more critical, contextualized, inclusive and broader approach in population and SRRH research and policy.}, url = {https://frw.studenttheses.ub.rug.nl/1237/} }
