Različne feministične analize naravne procese nosečnosti, poroda in plodnosti širše obravnavajo na izrazito heterogen način pomembno vlogo pri tem ima odnos do znanosti in tehnologije, ki predstavljata možnost nadzorovanja in obvladovanja teles. Magistrsko delo se osredotoči na očitke medikalizacije in problematizira ideal naravnega poroda. Vloga znanosti je obravnavana z vidika objektivnosti, nezdružljivosti paradigem in pomensko zaznamovanih simptomov. Odklonilen odnos do zdravstvene obravnave je povezan s problemom paternalizma v medicini, ob katerem naravni porod predstavlja alternativo nadzoru. Različne oblike paternalizma niso omejene na odnos med zdravstvenim osebjem in pacientom prisotne so tudi v gibanjih za naravni porod. Podoba kiborga ni obravnavana kot grožnja in skrajna posledica pretirane uporabe tehnologije, pač pa je sprejeta kot ena od možnih strategij preseganja vprašljive dihotomije med naravo in tehnologijo. Feminist analyses offer widely different approaches to the natural processes of pregnancy, childbirth, and fertility in general, with a key question being the attitude towards science and technology as a way to monitor and control bodies. The thesis focuses on the accusations of medicalization and questions the ideal of natural childbirth. The role of science is examined in terms of objectivity, incompatible paradigms, and symptoms inscribed with meaning. Reluctance to accept medical care is associated with the issue of paternalism in medicine, resulting in natural childbirth being presented as an alternative to control. Various forms of paternalism are not limited to the patient's relationships with healthcare staff they are present in advocacy for natural childbirth. The image of a cyborg is not treated as a threat or the extreme result of technology (over)use – it is instead embraced as a possible strategy for overcoming the questionable nature/technology dichotomy. |
