Area of Science:

  • Demography
  • Public Health
  • Sociology

Context:

  • Depopulating trends are evident in most of Yugoslavia, excluding Kosovo and Macedonia.
  • A majority of women express a desire for only two children.
  • Inadequate data on contraceptive prevalence exists, with significant numbers of women not using contraception or relying on less effective methods.

Purpose:

  • To investigate family size desires and contraceptive practices among women in Yugoslavia.
  • To explore societal measures for addressing declining birth rates and achieving population stability.
  • To analyze the implications of current trends on public health and reproductive choices.

Summary:

  • Despite a desire for smaller families, low uptake and use of effective contraception contribute to high rates of induced abortions.

  • Promoting wider use of effective contraception is crucial for improving reproductive health outcomes.
  • Addressing declining birth rates requires long-term strategies focused on improving living standards, which may encourage larger family sizes.
  • Impact:

    • Failure to promote effective contraception and improve living standards risks continued depopulation and increased unsafe abortions.
    • Restricting access to fertility regulation methods is unacceptable and would likely lead to a rise in dangerous illegal abortions.
    • Policy interventions should focus on enhancing reproductive health services and socioeconomic conditions to ensure population stability and public well-being.
