Resumen
Durante las décadas del sesenta y setenta, el discurso de la “explosión demográfica” impulsó la consolidación de políticas internacionales de control de la natalidad, en Colombia fueron efectivas con los Programas de Planificación Familiar, y en Medellín por medio de los Centros de Salud. La Iglesia Católica emprendió su campaña por la condena de los métodos anticonceptivos artificiales y socializó los métodos naturales, divulgando el ideal de mujer madre – esposa. El cuerpo de las mujeres tuvo un lugar central e importante para instrumentalizar las políticas de control poblacional, o para en el caso de Iglesia Católica, estimular la reproducción. Ambas posiciones, tuvieron el interés por mantener un orden social basado en el sometimiento de las mujeres, a través de la producción de la vida, dando sustento a una jerarquía de género, heteronormativa, patriarcal y determinada por la clase social. A medida que transcurrió el tiempo, se evidenció cómo el control de la natalidad pasó de ser un argumento instrumental, y se abrió a discusiones más profundas sobre el rol y la condición de las mujeres, las realidades de las mujeres trabajadoras, sindicalistas, obreras, estudiantes, militantes de izquierda las llevaron a dirigir sus luchas por la libre opción a| la maternidad.
