Description

Bodies that Birth: Vitalizing Birth Politics (Women and Psychology) by Rachelle Chadwick offers a deep look into contemporary birth politics, power, and agency. Published by Routledge, this work places birthing bodies at the center of social science inquiry. Chadwick addresses how the fleshy and embodied aspects of birth are often silenced in scholarship. By using an array of birth stories from diverse race-class demographics, the book explores the connections between flesh, power, and sociomateriality. Using a framework that combines new materialism, feminist theory, and a Foucauldian analytics of power, this text traces and troubles established perspectives on the birthing experience.
