A transpacific history of clashing imperial ambitions, Contraceptive Diplomacy turns to the history of the birth control movement in the United States and Japan to interpret the struggle for hegemony in the Pacific through the lens of transnational feminism. As the birth control movement spread beyond national and racial borders, it shed its radical bearings and was pressed into the service of larger ideological debates around fertility rates and overpopulation, global competitiveness, and eugenics. By the time of the Cold War, a transnational coalition for women's sexual liberation had been handed over to imperial machinations, enabling state-sponsored population control projects that effectively disempowered women and deprived them of reproductive freedom.
In this book, Aiko Takeuchi-Demirci follows the relationship between two iconic birth control activists, Margaret Sanger in the United States and Ishimoto Shizue in Japan, as well as other intellectuals and policymakers in both countries who supported their campaigns, to make sense of the complex transnational exchanges occurring around contraception. The birth control movement facilitated U.S. expansionism, exceptionalism, and anti-communist policy and was welcomed in Japan as a hallmark of modernity. By telling the story of reproductive politics in a transnational context, Takeuchi-Demirci draws connections between birth control activism and the history of eugenics, racism, and imperialism. 避孕外交是一部跨太平洋的历史，它以美国和日本的节育运动为背景，以跨国女权主义的视角来解读太平洋地区的争夺霸权。随着计划生育运动蔓延到国家和种族的边界之外，它摆脱了激进的轴承，被迫为更大的关于生育率、人口过剩、全球竞争力和优生学的意识形态辩论服务。到冷战时期，一个跨国妇女性解放联盟已经移交给帝国主义的阴谋，使国家支持的人口控制项目，有效地剥夺了妇女的权力和生殖自由。在这本书中，竹内爱子-德米尔奇跟随两个标志性的计划生育活动家之间的关系，美国的玛格丽特桑格和日本的石本，以及其他知识分子和决策者在两个国家谁支持他们的运动，使复杂的跨国交流发生在避孕方面的意义。生育控制运动促进了美国的扩张主义，例外主义，和反共产主义政策，并作为现代化的标志在日本受到欢迎。通过讲述跨国背景下的生育政治故事，竹内-德米尔奇将节育行动主义与优生学，种族主义和帝国主义的历史联系起来。 基本信息 出版社 : Stanford University Press; 第 1st 版 (2018年1月9日) 语言 : 英语 精装 : 336页 ISBN-10 : 1503602257 ISBN-13 : 978-1503602250 商品重量 : 567 g 尺寸 : 15.24 x 2.24 x 22.86 cm
