自从罗伊诉韦德案以来,公众对胎儿的兴趣越来越大,部分原因是有效的反堕胎宣传,部分原因是医学和技术的发展。虽然女权主义者已经开始注意到胎儿图像在各种媒体上的泛滥,比如医学杂志、杂志和电影,但很少有人公开谈论胎儿主题的出现给女权主义带来的问题。《胎儿主体,女性主义立场》突出了女性主义关注女性生殖主体重要性的努力,同时承认胎儿主体在公共话语和私人经验中日益重要。论文论述了公众对胎儿主题的迷恋及其对美国堕胎话语和女权主义者对生殖权利的承诺的影响。贡献者包括来自人类学、传播学、政治学、社会学和哲学等不同领域的学者。这本及时的书为学者和生殖权利活动家提供了一个关于胎儿的对话论坛,而不承认以牺牲妇女为代价将胎儿神圣化的道德或政治议程。
Since Roe v. Wade, there has been increasing public interest in fetuses, in part as a result of effective antiabortion propaganda and in part as a result of developments in medicine and technology. While feminists have begun to take note of the proliferation of fetal images in various media, such as medical journals, magazines, and motion pictures, few have openly addressed the problems that the emergence of the fetal subject poses for feminism.Fetal Subjects, Feminist Positions foregrounds feminism's effort to focus on the importance of women's reproductive agency, and at the same time acknowledges the increasing significance of fetal subjects in public discourse and private experience. Essays address the public fascination with the fetal subject and its implications for abortion discourse and feminist commitment to reproductive rights in the United States. Contributors include scholars from fields as diverse as anthropology, communications, political science, sociology, and philosophy.This timely volume provides scholars and reproductive rights activists a forum for dialogue about fetuses without conceding to a moral or political agenda that would sanctify them at women's expense.
