伊朗伊斯兰共和国可以说是发展中国家最成功的计划生育方案之一。这一成功对于人口计划的倡导者来说更加有趣,因为伊斯兰政权的政治领导人曾经强烈反对计划生育。事实上,在1979年革命后获得权力后,他们负责拆除伊朗相对较新的计划生育计划,并引入pronatalist政策,本文提供了艺术帐户的不同阶段的人口政策在伊朗和检查的不同因素,导致政治宗教领袖修改他们的观点,生育控制和参与创建一个可行的计划生育计划。政治专家、媒体、宗教当局和伊斯兰共和国政府为了实现这一转变而采取的复杂的正式和非正式战略得到了描述。该分析基于第一作者在1993-96年人类学实地研究期间通过与官员、医务人员、计划生育服务对象和宗教领袖的非正式访谈收集的数据(《计划生育研究》,2000年; 31[1]:19-34)。
The Islamic Republic of Iran arguably has one of the most successful family planning programs in the developing world. This success is all the more interesting for advocates of population programs because the political leaders of the Islamic regime were once strongly opposed to family planning. Indeed, after gaining power following the 1979 revolution, they were responsible for dismantling Iran's relatively new family planning program and introducing pronatalist policies, This article provides art account of the different phases of the population policy in Iran and examines the diverse elements that led politicoreligious leaders to revise their views about fertility control and to participate in creating a workable family planning program. The complex formal and informal strategies that the political experts, the media, the religious authorities, and the government of the Islamic Republic adopted in order to achieve this about-face are described. The analysis is based on data collected by the first author during anthropological field research in 1993-96, by means of informal interviews with officials, with medical personnel, with family planning clients, and with religious leaders (STUDIES IN FAMILY PLANNING 2000; 31[1]: 19-34).
