Rationalism and the disembodiment of modern childbirth: the case for an ecology of childbirth

The paper proposes a genealogy of the biomedical paradigm surroundingchildbirth, with the aim of deconstructing the principles of rationalism that led to theobjectification of the body and to the consequent commodification of birth.
