Title: Population crisis.
Author: Sagrera M
Source: Madrid, Spain, Editorial Fundamentos, 1994. 87 p.
Abstract: This volume updates a prior 1990 publication on Sex, Population, and Politics. It includes a discussion of population growth, population aging, the sociology of sexuality and population, sex and religion in history, abortion without extremisms, the nature of the opposition of the Roman Catholic Church to birth control, and an appendix on practical ways of promoting birth control (publicity, campaigns, language and slogans, funding, motivations, and humor). The author was trained in philosophy and theology at the Pontifical Gregorian University of Rome. Each chapter is part of a larger publication. The position is taken that overpopulation and false remedies must be addressed with contraception. Aging of populations is viewed as population maturity and as a tool of "populationist" societies. Social change is key to population change. Abortion should be approached without extremes.
