Between Privacy and the Public Debate: Decisions on Reproduction in Germany and the US in the Second Half of the 20th Century (B15 [A05])

该项目提议对1945年至2000年间的家庭政策和规范以及生殖知识和生殖决策模式进行国际比较。因此，它侧重于三个社会(爱尔兰、西班牙和波兰)，这三个社会不仅在所涉时期面临重大的社会变革，而且还受到天主教会的强烈影响，尽管影响并不是一致的。我们的历史分析将讨论在激烈的社会政治变化阶段的生育决策文化，以及国家经营的家庭政策与经济和宗教的纠缠。这将使我们能够确定和讨论生殖知识的具体文化。

The project proposes an international comparison of family policies and norms as well as reproductive knowledge and patterns of reproductive decision-making between 1945 and 2000. Thus, it focusses on three societies (Ireland, Spain and Poland) which not only faced considerable social change in the period under concern, but were also characterized by strong albeit not uniform influence from the Catholic Church. Our historical analysis will discuss cultures of reproductive decision-making in a phase of fierce socio-political change as well as the entanglement of state-run family policies with economy and religion. This will allow us to identify and discuss specific cultures of reproductive knowledge.
