Women, household and health in Latin America.
Although recent studies have identified some of the links in Latin America between uneven capitalist economic development and health, the impact of development on either the health of women or on household health is still largely unknown. This account identifies several areas of needed research. It focuses on how changing women's roles and patterns of domestic production affect women's reproductive behavior, and the consequences of these changes for the health of women and other members of their households.
