Hello everyone. Can you offer some help with a research paper?

My wife is trying her hardest to find some research materials on the politics of birth control relating specifically to South Africa.

We've managed to find one book:
Race, Maternity and the Politics of Birth Control in South Africa, 1910-1939 (Hardcover)
by Susanne M. Klausen

It's a great book that hits dead on what she is looking for, but it only relates to early 20th century. We're now on the hunt for writings related to the modern times. Online searches have only produced a small amount of information buried within larger writings that don't pertain to the specific subject. Anything relating to religious beliefs, political pressures, and societal pressures around birth control in a historical context, from early twenty century to modern times.

Any ideas on finding better material relating to this subject? Thanks in advance.

1. check the NY Reivew of Books....they've had some

articles on the effects of W's ideas on African birth control programs, etc

and maybe writing to the embassy/consulate?????

2. Cool, thanks for the ideas. Didn't think about the embassy. I'll see if

they have some info.

3. Try the UN. They have an unbelievable reservoir of information.

They have such a wide variety of programs and cover population issues in depth.
