Abstract:
:This article reports verbatim the National Development Plan for 1978-1983, issued by the Office of the President of the Chilean Republic, and by the Office of National Planning. The document states that an increase in population would be desirable; however, action toward such goal is to be taken by individual couples, without any interference by the government. Abortion and sexual sterilization are strictly forbidden, but responsible paternity is encourgaged. There are 3 fundamental variables regulating the balance between population and national security: age distribution of inhabitants, spacial distribution of the population, and values, attitudes, and cultural motivation of the population. The Chilean government will keep a network of contraceptive information services, will implement secondary school courses of sex education and of human development, will provide incentive to encourage the population to go back to rural areas, and will recognize the equality of women and men in front of the law. All such programs will be implemented in full respect of individual liberties.
