SCHOIJET, Mauricio. Birth control: a history's outline. Pap. poblac [online]. 2007, vol.13, n.54, pp.115-161. ISSN 2448-7147.

This article reviews the struggles to legalize abortion and access to contraceptives in several countries, from the demand to contraceptive access as from 1820 in Great Britain, this very access appeared by the end of the XIX century into the United States, Canada and other European countries. Noteworthy are the cases of the Communist Party in Germany in the period prior to the ascension of Fascism -for it developed a movement of birth control as movement of masses- and the ideological reasons which made the United States promote the exportation of birth control after WWII.

Palabras llave : birth control; feminism; contraceptives.
