荷兰的助产系统,近三分之一的分娩发生在家里,受到生育活动家的广泛赞赏。为什么在所有其他欧洲国家都转向医院产科护理的情况下,荷兰仍然保持这种分娩方式?在这篇文章中,我研究了社会力量-结构和文化-使荷兰人坚持提供孕产妇服务的方式,其他现代化国家在20世纪上半叶放弃了。
The midwifery system of the Netherlands, where nearly one‐third of births occur at home, is widely admired by birth activists. Why has the Netherlands maintained this way of birthing babies when all other European countries have shifted to hospital‐based maternity care? In this article, I examine the societal forces ‐ both structural and cultural ‐ that allowed the Dutch to hold on to a way of delivering maternity services that other modernizing nations discarded earlier in the first half of the 20th century.
