1996年，印度政府宣布了一项新的国家人口政策，取消了新避孕药具接受者的数字指标。本文考察了印度目标设定的历史以及导致目标取消的因素。分析的依据是关于印度人口政策和计划生育方案的已发表和未发表的报告以及与印度和外国高级官员和人口专家的访谈。在从制定目标到无目标政策的演变过程中，有五个因素发挥了作用：⑴印度学术界的研究; ⑵妇女健康倡导者的工作; ⑶批准无目标办法的国家官僚机构官员的支持; ⑷印度计划生育方案捐助者，特别是世界银行的影响;（5）国际人口与发展会议。
In 1996 the government of India announced a new national population policy that eliminated numerical targets for new contraceptive acceptors. This paper examines the history of target setting in India and factors that led to the elimination of targets. The analysis is based on published and unpublished reports on India's population policy and the family planning programme and interviews with senior Indian and foreign officials and population specialists. Five factors are identified as playing a role in the evolution from target setting to a target-free policy: (1) the research of India's academics; (2) the work of women's health advocates; (3) the support of officials in the state bureaucracy who approved the target-free approach; (4) the influence of the donors to India's family planning programme, especially the World Bank; and (5) the International Conference on Population and Development.
