  • Title: The politics of reproduction in Ceausescu's Romania: a case study in political culture.
    Author: Kligman G.
    Journal: East Eur Polit Soc; 1992; 6(3):364-418. PubMed ID: 12287552.
    Abstract:
    The author analyzes "the politics of reproduction in Romania...[in order] to comprehend better the...legacy of the Ceausescu era.... This study also enables us to focus on the social implications and human costs of restrictive reproductive legislation and policies, especially as they impact on the lives of women and children.... In this report, I will explore the relationship between official rhetoric, policy, and everyday practice through an analysis of the politics of reproduction during Ceausescu's reign. I will discuss Ceausescu's pronatalist policies, and comment on the human dramas born of them: illegal abortion, child abandonment, infant AIDS, and international adoption."
