Exploring the nature of vulnerability during childbirth, and the factors which make childbirth a site for violence and control, the book looks at the role of law in the regulation of professional intervention in childbirth. The WHO statement and other published work on 'mistreatment', 'obstetric violence', 'birth trauma', 'birth rape', and 'dehumanised care' all point to the presence of vulnerability, violence and control in childbirth. This collected edition explores these issues in the experience of those giving birth, and for those providing obstetric services. It further offers insights regarding legal avenues of redress in the context of this emerging area of concern. Using violence, vulnerability and control as a lens through which to consider multiple facets of the law, the book brings together innovative research from an interdisciplinary selection of authors. The book will appeal to scholars of law and legal academics, specifically in relation to tort, criminal law, medical law, and human rights. It will also be of interest to postgraduate scholars of medical ethics and those concerned with gender studies more broadly"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Medical personnel $x Malpractice. 650 0 $a Childbirth. 650 0 $a Women $x Crimes against. 650 0 $a Women $x Violence against. 650 0 $a Health facilities $x Risk management. 650 0 $a Pregnancy $x Risk factors. $x Risk factors. 650 7 $a Childbirth. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00854780 650 7 $a Health facilities $x Risk management. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00953054 650 7 $a Medical personnel $x Malpractice. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01014440 650 7 $a Pregnancy $x Risk factors. $x Risk factors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01075117 650 7 $a Women $x Crimes against. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176618 650 7 $a Women $x Violence against. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01427006 700 1 $a Pickles, Camilla, $e editor. 700 1 $a Herring, Jonathan, $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Childbirth, vulnerability and law $b 1. $d New York : Routledge, 2019. $z 9780429443718 $w (DLC) 2019027829 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20200318013604.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5DF38FE0209B11EABA878C2E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
