N2  - This essay examines the entanglement between population science and population governance immediately after World War II. It analyzes debates on  population and birth control research that contributed to the state-endorsed  birth control campaign. Drawing on the existing works on the campaign as well  as coproduction theory proposed in science and technology studies (STS), this  essay depicts how the Japanese state’s post-war birth control policy was  coproduced with a particular kind of population science that insisted on  the necessity of birth control for Japan’s post-war reconstruction
