Postpartum Intrauterine Device Removal and Access to Removal in the 18 Months Following an Intervention in Tanzania, Sri Lanka, and Nepal
Family planning programs in the Global South promote long‐acting reversible contraception (LARC), but research suggests that women face barriers to LARC discontinuation, inhibiting their reproductive autonomy. Scholars have called for improved data visibility around LARC removal access. We use data from the Postpartum Intrauterine Device (PPIUD) Study, a randomized trial of a PPIUD intervention conducted in Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Tanzania from 201…
Assessing the Suitability of Unmet Need as a Proxy for Access to Contraception and Desire to Use It
Unmet need for contraception is a widely used but frequently misunderstood indicator. Although calculated from measures of pregnancy intention and current contraceptive use, unmet need is commonly used as a proxy measure for (1) lack of access to contraception and (2) desire to use it. Using data from a survey in Burkina Faso, we examine the extent to which unmet need corresponds with and diverges from these two concepts, calculating sensitivity,…
The Politics of Policy
Rhetoric and Reality in the Reform of Juvenile Justice Policy
In the 1960s and 1970s dissatisfaction with the administration of juvenile justice led to a reform movement which advocated “diversion, deinstitutionalization,” and the decriminalization of status offenses as strategies to reduce the harmfulness of official contacts. This paper argues not only that these reforms have not been successfully implemented, but also that the traditional system has been maintained and extended. Explanations for the fail…
Heroin Use in the Barrio
Above and Beyond the Best Interests of the Child
The publication of an inter-disciplinary effort on child welfare law, co-authored by three such luminary figures as Joseph Goldstein (Walton Hale Hamilton Professor of Law, Science and Social Policy at Yale University Law School), Anna Freud (perhaps the foremost living authority on the emotional lives of children), and Albert Solnit (Director of the Yale University Child Study Center), is an intellectual event. The talents of these authors are s…

Purchase of Conformity
This study investigates the hypothesis that a decent salary ($600 a month) paid to men who normally could not command such wages in the legitimate job market (ex-drug addicts working with practicing addicts in the community) and their social service status would be sufficient to lead the men into acceptance of middleclass values and life styles. Data were obtained from 31 ex-addicts through interviews and field observation. It was concluded that …
