Misinformation and fear of side-effects of family planning
Fears about the side-effects from family planning are well-documented barriers to use. Many fears are misinformation, while others reflect real experience, and understanding of these is not complete. Using qualitative interviews with women in three countries, this study examines what women feared, how they acquired this knowledge, and how it impacted on decision-making. We aimed to understand whether women would be more likely to use family plann…
Niger
In this article Niger is presented as the most extreme example of a catastrophe that is likely to overtake the Sahel.

The barriers include lim…

This critique has three parts: it identifies the misconceptions that make the quantity theory false, explains why the theory seems obviously true and, last, presents an alternative explanation to replace it. On the first count, Marx argues that the quantity theory conflates different functions of money — measure and means of circulation — …
The Culmination of Capital
In this collection, four philosophers and four economists consider the Third Volume of Marx's Capital. The essays take up each of the major themes of Volume III - competition, for formation and develo
Money in the Circulation of Capital
In Volume One of Capital, Marx explains money as the necessary counterpart to the mass of commodities one observes in capitalist societies. Money is necessary, he argues, because all commodities must have one and the same equivalent in exchange. Here Marx takes the presence of commodities for granted. As he will argue later in Volume One, generalized commodity production (or generalized production for sale) occurs only in capitalism. By then, how…
