520    Long-acting and reversible contraceptives, such as 
       Norplant and Depo-Provera, have been praised as highly 
       effective, moderately priced, and generally safe. Yet, as 
       this book argues, the very qualities that make these 
       contraceptives an important alternative for individual 
       choice in family planning also make them a potential tool 
       of coercive social policy. For example, policymakers have 
       linked their use to welfare benefits, and judges, to 
       probation agreements. In this book, authors from the 
       fields of medicine, ethics, law, and the social sciences 
       probe the unique and vexing ethical and policy issues 
       raised by long-acting contraception. 
520 8  The book offers comprehensive ethical guidelines for 
       health care professionals and policymakers, as well as an 
       ethical framework for analyzing policies and practices 
       concerning long-acting contraceptives. The authors 
       consider cultural, social, and ethical issues pertaining 
       to contraception, and they provide historical and 
       scientific background on today's controversies. They 
       explore alternative conceptual and theoretical frameworks,
       including analyses of autonomy, coercion and 
       responsibility in reproductive decisions. This volume also
       notes the special concerns that arise when policies 
       promoting long-term birth control target low-income women 
       and women of color, and when these contraceptives are used
       in developing countries.
