The extent to which family planning programmes are successful at reducing fertility remains a major debate among population scholars. A comparative policy analysis of four pairs of low-income countries (Bangladesh/Pakistan, Thailand/Philippines, Tunisia/Algeria and Zimbabwe/Zambia) was carried out to understand why some countries develop appropriate and effective programmes, while other countries do not. The study found that the formation of coalitions among policy elites, spread of policy risk, and institutional and financial stability were factors which supported or inhibited the adoption of strong population policies and family planning programmes.
计划生育项目在降低生育率方面的成功程度仍是人口学者之间的一个主要争论点。对四对低收入国家（孟加拉国/巴基斯坦、泰国/菲律宾、突尼斯/阿尔及利亚和津巴布韦/赞比亚）进行了比较政策分析，以了解为何一些国家制定了适当且有效的项目，而其他国家却没有。研究发现，政策精英之间联盟的形成、政策风险的传播以及机构和金融稳定性是支持或阻碍采取强有力的人口政策和计划生育项目的因素。
