The building of medical institutions and the creation of elite professionals to treat individual illnesses is frequently modern industrial society's substitute for the solutions to health problems which could only be brought about through broader societal, community and economic changes. Meanwhile most governments have not, in fact, lived up to their campaign promises: heulth and medical care for poor and Third world minority women and their families s t i l l remains embarrassingly inadequate, punitive and/or difficult to obtain.

Women's health activists are trying to strike a balance between the recognition of the need for necessary, emergency care and primary care, on the one hand, and the ability to command the most sophisticated technology, which is relatively ineffective, on the other. While it is possible for us to care for ourselves with greater effectiveness, this ability cannot be used as an excuse by governments to cut down on essential services, not the assigning to women of yet another unpaid, unrecognized job in the home. Most particularly, caring for ourselves cannot become a substitute for controlling the behavior of corporations or changing those living conditions which might make control over our lives and optimum health possible.
