Abstract
This paper tries to simplify the issue of whether women with HIV have reproductive rights. In order to do this it focuses largely on the direct relationship of HIV to both the ethical and practical aspects of women's reproductive rights. In attempting to come to a conclusion, the author of the paper tried to balance the ethical and moral dimensions of the question against the practical issues such as poverty and economics.
From the Paper
"Reproductive rights essentially refer to the fact both males ands females have the right to determine the reproductive process and child-rearing in all aspects and "The right to make decisions about reproduction must be free from discrimination, force and violence." (International Conference on Population and Development ICPD) ( ibid)
However the meaning of reproductive right extends into other areas. For example, this includes the right to non-discrimination based on sex/gender and the right to privacy as well as the right to information. The issue of the reproductive rights for women becomes problematic and often fraught with controversy when it is applied to those infected with the HIV virus. This dilemma has far-reaching implications for the millions of women with HIV throughout the world."

Abstract
The current debate over reproductive rights centers primarily on advancements in reproductive technology. This term is used in reference to both current and projected uses of technology in human and animal reproduction. Examples of controversial reproductive technologies are cloning, contraception, artificial insemination, in vitro fertilization, embryo testing, and hormone treatment to increase fertility, to name just a few. The paper looks at the history of reproductive rights, the advancements in the area thus far, and the current recommendations or debates on the subject. The paper looks at the points of view of both the liberal and conservative sides on the issue.
From the Paper
"Furthermore, liberals would say that marriage between a man and a woman is not the only place that a child can be raised properly, or the only place where technology can/should be allowed. Liberals would criticize the close-mindedness of the conservative stance and say that reproductive technology is free and open for anyone to choose. Liberals would also criticize the conservative view of contraception and say that monogamy as an institution is against the sexual freedom that people are entitled to. Teaching only abstinence is not viewed as realistic from a liberal standpoint, nor is it viewed as necessary. Liberals view conservatives as making sex into a dirty "thing" when not done within a heterosexual marriage."

Abstract
This in-depth paper outlines the history of eugenic policies against mentally disabled persons in the United States since the beginning of the 20th century and examines how such policies have been expanded to include minorities, especially poor women. It show these eugenic policies continue in the United States today via limitations on the reproductive rights of welfare recipients. The paper includes explanations of fallacies of arguments used to support these policies, and concludes that these policies unfairly discriminate against women.
From the Paper
"While the horrors committed in Nazi Germany forced the United States to reevaluate some of its more extreme eugenic tendencies, policymakers have failed to this day to examine some of the most basic ideologies that led to the original adoption of the eugenic measures. Unfortunately, the history of forced sterilization in the United States in the twentieth century continues to the present day, even to the point of pervading the debate on welfare reform. These arguments about the control of the reproductive rights of women receiving welfare aid are detrimental to the rights of women. It is therefore necessary that issues concerning the reproductive rights of women receiving welfare be eliminated from all discourse on the topic of welfare ?reform.?

Abstract
This paper assesses the increased rights of youth (such as lowered voting age) and queries whether this should be extended to sexual freedom and women given the legal right to make this decision from a younger age, including concepts such as parental involvement, abortion, and specific attitudes of abortion with regards to rape and incest. Looks at the pros and cons of both sides. Ultimately concludes a female teen has to accept responsibility for her sexual actions, since it is she who takes ownership of her body.
From the Paper
"Teenagers make their own private decisions about engaging in sex and should be given the right to be the sole decider of their own reproductive fate. A teenage female who is sexually active is in essence taking responsibility for the consequences. If she opts for birth control, that is her decision. If she becomes pregnant, parental consent should not be a factor in deciding whether a teenager can obtain an abortion. In accepting her own physical maturity, a teenage female also accepts adult responsibility. As a teenage legal right, a female teen takes ownership of her adult body and owns her own behavior by making her own decision to abort or deliver a child."

Abstract
This paper explores the controversial subject of abortion from the perspective of women's rights. The paper is written from a pro-choice perspective, and argues that the right to abortion is essentially a women's prerogative. This study explores the various arguments that support the right of women to choose for themselves. Relevant literature is cited including studies that pertain not only to American women but also women in developing nations. The author concludes that women's reproductive rights should be seen in the larger context of class, race and economic discrimination.

Abstract
References
From the Paper
"Reproductive rights, as the essential rights of women over their own bodies and sexuality, are not something separate from other issues relating to gender rights. One the central arguments put forward in this regard that it is the woman that must make this choice and not a society that is dominated by male views and prejudices. Considered in this larger context, the issue of abortion is seen in a more appropriate and rational way. "

Abstract
This paper addresses the question of what it means to say that the Canadian population is reproduced from the perspective of labor force reproduction. It discusses the effects of the intersection of fertility and immigration over labor force reproduction. It then discusses how this reproduction has shaped the economic structures of society in the interest of big business.
From the Paper
"Thus, the labor force of Canada was not biologically reproducing itself on a generational basis by the last decades of the twentieth century. In order to meet this shortfall, the Government of Canada resorted to immigration to supply a labor force to meet the demands of the Canadian economy. These demands are complex, for the Labor Force Reproduction model indicates that the economy needs a labor supply not only in terms of production but also to consume the goods produced. As a result, in the years in which the Canadian fertility rates were declining (after 1956) the Canadian immigration levels were increasing. From 1954 to 1992 Canada accepted 5.7 million immigrants. These immigrants fulfilled a wide number of economic roles in Canadian society, from contributing as business class immigrants and supplying entrepreneurial investment funds, to those who work in the commercial and corporate sectors. In addition, we must not forget the significant numbers of immigrants who worked as unpaid labor - often women - and so subsidized the paid labor force in Canada."

Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses that a labour force reproduction (LFR) perspective allows insights into how populations reproduce themselves in the context of economic change, with fertility and immigration being contributory factors over time. As this essay argues, in discussing how the Canadian population is (re)produced from a LFR perspective, the use of this perspective allows us to understand critical issues of power and, in particular, who gains from such a reproduction process. In this analysis, one can see how a labour force reproduction perspective allows us to understand how fertility rates and immigration factor into postwar Canadian economic growth. The writer concludes that changes in the LFR model reflect broader economic changes under globalization that reveal how corporate interests profit significantly from this reproduction process.
From the Paper
"However, the LFR model extended far beyond the shop floor, and can be understood as part of a larger vision of social organization whereby the single-wage earning family was promoted as the primary model for both the reproduction of labour - in the form of children - as well as of consumption. Thus, industrialists such as Ford recognized that it was in the self-interests of industry that they create well-paying jobs, as these well-paid workers were also prosperous consumers of the products assembly line mass production was creating across North America. Thus, the Fordist LFR model can be seen as a cycle by which the industrial economy reproduces itself over time."

Abstract
Many scholars of today tend to view and analyze Aristotle's theory of reproduction and especially of the place of the female in society with sympathy. In this essay, the author argues that the purpose of Aristotle's theory of reproduction was to establish the inferiority of women to man and that he methodically deduced the conclusion that the female is an incomplete or mutilated male.

Abstract
This essay discusses how mechanical reproduction has resulted in the retreat from reality. The techno-formulation of reality, which is the mechanical reproduction of images, has served to change human perception. The problem of prime time television serves as an example of this reality, since it fosters graphic incoherence.

Abstract
This paper explores technological reproductive reform and if it causes greater harm to women if they engage in these technologies or if they do not? The paper continues to discuss if reproduction is a right or a privilege. The author also considers whether the answer to this question changes when considering gender.
From the Paper
"In light of the devastating effects that being infertile has on women, through no fault of their own, at least no more fault than a person who has a heart attack, it could be argued that they have the right to reproduce or at the very least the right to choose. If a person has a fundamental right to reproduce, then society through governments, policy and legislation, has an obligation to ensure that effective reproductive technologies are affordable, safe and readily available to all individuals. Further, feminists have an obligation to lobby for the necessary changes needed to make reproductive technologies safe and beneficial and not criticize those who choose to use them."

Reproduction in Art, 2005.
A review of the impact art reproductions had on media development in the 20th century.

Abstract
This paper considers the influence new forms of reproduction beginning in the nineteenth century had on the development of media in the twentieth century, noting how images could be more widely disseminated. This was certainly a change over earlier times, but also the possibility of reproduction and the actual reproduction itself, influenced media in other ways as well.
From the Paper
"The ability to make reproductions of images and of works of art has had a major influence on how media developed in the twentieth century. This change has been similar on one level to the massive change brought about when the reproduction of written works became possible with the printing press. Prior to that, books had to be made by hand, one at a time, often with elaborate illustrations and decorations called illumination. Such books were expensive and rare, and few people had access to them. The same was long true of works of art - only those able to travel to where the artwork was kept could view it."

Abstract
In this context, it is explained how the lines between production and reproduction are blurred. The changing dynamics of the new economic system, which spans the entire globe, uses the dynamics of the family to produce commodity as well as reproduce labor to produce commodity. This essay will look furthermore at what factors went into the incorporation of women in the paid labor force in the Post-War period in Canada and how women are used by capitalism not just to reproduce labor, but also to provide low-wage labor on a large scale.

Bdelloid Rotifer Reproduction, 2005.
An examination of the reproduction characteristics of Bdelloid Rofiers.

Abstract
Rotifers are, perhaps, one of the most interesting phyla of microscopic pseudocoelomate animals on the face of the planet. This paper looks at how the bdelloids reproduce and how have they been able to evolve successfully with asexual reproduction.
From the Paper
"The corona of the rotifer is composed of several ciliated tufts positioned around the mouth. When these tufts are in motion, they resemble a wheel, hence the name. It is the motion of these tufts that sweep food into the mouth of the rotifer and is then chewed by the mastax that contains tiny jaws. In addition to feeding, the motion of these tufts provides locomotion, pulling the rotifer through the water (Ryan, 2004). (See Images 1 ? 4)"

Abstract
This paper discusses how the growing human population is having a devastating effect on the earth's resources. The author presents many different scenarios that support the argument that human population growth must be curbed in order to prevent the earth's destruction. Some of the materials presented include the relationship between humans and the ecosystem and how over the years, human insensitivities have progressively damaged this ecosystem. Some of the topics discussed also include how the ecosystem is affected by pollution, water shortages, global warming, increased meat and fish consumption and excessive stripping of the forests, which according to the research presented by this author, are all a result of over-population.
From the Paper
"When this occurs naturally, such as the conversion of forest to grassland due to fires by lightning, it is called ?ecosystem development or ecological succession? (Ecosystem pg). Carrying capacity refers to the number or organisms that a particular environment can support. ?If the carrying capacity of an ecosystem is exceeded by overpopulation, there will be insufficient resources and one or more species will decline? until balance is restored (Ecosystem pg). And if the population is less than the carrying capacity of an environment, then the number of a species will increase until it balances the available resources (Ecosystem pg). Humans all too often disrupt the carrying capacity of an area by over-grazing on grasslands, over-culling a species, or introducing a non-indigenous species into an area (Ecosystem pg). However, other forms of human activity are having consequential effects on the ecosystem of the planet."
