Women's status and family planning in Haiti.
"The paper argues that women's status in Haiti is a factor favorable to the spread of modern contraception and a potential rapid demographic transition from high to low fertility.  After briefly reviewing recent theories on the determining of fertility declines, the paper considers women's status in Haiti.  It discusses family patterns, conjugal unions, and economic activities.  Finally, it reviews current patterns of contraceptive use and considers how these are related to various aspects of women's status."
