The project will investigate how the category of pregnant teenager is constituted, how the knowledges surrounding it are produced and how young pregnant women experience the provision of services aimed at reducing teenage pregnancy and supporting teenage mothers. Drawing on the work of Foucault, it will examine how power works productively through the government of conduct. The project will identify the potentially marginalizing effects of practices aimed at maximizing the health of the population and well-being of individuals.Initially, the project will examine the existing policy framework within Cornwall in relation to teenage pregnancy. This will be situated historically and geographically through a survey of national and international policy and the academic literature. Second, interviews will be conducted with teenage pregnant women in Cornwall. The focus is the perspective and experience of the young women, exploring how teenage pregnancy is assimilated and/or resisted by women as part of their identity. Third, interviews will be conducted with policy actors and health care and social professionals in Cornwall. Through these interviews the project will examine how service providers view the 'problem' of teenage pregnancy and how they view the user-group. It will inquire into how the social norms surrounding teenage pregnancy and mothering support measures of assessment and surveillance. It will explore how regulatory practices surrounding teenage pregnancy become thinkable, how these practices are reproduced and how reflective service providers and policy actors are concerning the potentially marginalizing effects of teenage pregnancy reduction strategies.The project will combine the interpretation of interviews, observations of policy network and reading of philosophical texts to develop a flexible critical theory of governmentality (which includes genealogy, phenomenology of everyday life and interpretive public policy). The governmentality approach facilitates an analysis of the relations of power at the level of the technologies and practices of everyday government through face to face encounters as the conduct of self. This approach recognizes how expertise as knowledge works to legitimize particular practices and claims to truth through which what can be said and done come to appear meaningful.The project will recommend improvements to service delivery and policy making driven by the experience of the women and informed by the critical theory of governmentality that is developed. As the Project partner, Healthwatch Cornwall will play an essential part in all stages of the research, including the research design, interpretation of findings, development of recommendations and dissemination.

该项目将调查怀孕少女这一类别是如何构成的，有关这一类别的知识是如何产生的，以及年轻孕妇对旨在减少少女怀孕和支助少女母亲的服务的体验如何。借鉴福柯的工作，它将研究权力如何通过政府的行为有效地运作。该项目将查明旨在最大限度地提高人口健康和个人福利的做法可能产生的边缘化影响，首先，该项目将审查康沃尔郡有关少女怀孕的现有政策框架。这将通过对国家和国际政策以及学术文献的调查，从历史和地理上确定。第二，将对康沃尔郡的少女孕妇进行采访。重点是年轻妇女的观点和经验，探讨少女怀孕是如何被吸收和/或抵制的妇女作为其身份的一部分。第三，将与康沃尔郡的政策参与者、医疗保健和社会专业人员进行访谈。通过这些访谈，该项目将研究服务提供者如何看待少女怀孕的“问题”以及他们如何看待用户群体。它将探讨围绕少女怀孕和育儿的社会规范如何支持评估和监督措施。该项目将探讨围绕少女怀孕的监管做法如何变得不合理，这些做法如何被复制，以及反思服务提供者和政策行为者如何关注减少少女怀孕战略的潜在边缘化影响，该项目将结合联合收割机的访谈解释，政策网络的观察和哲学文本的阅读，以发展一种灵活的治理批判理论（包括系谱学、日常生活现象学和解释性公共政策）。治理的方法，通过面对面的接触，作为自我的行为，在日常政府的技术和实践的水平上，促进了权力关系的分析。这一方法认识到作为知识的专门知识如何使特定做法合法化，并使人们对真理的主张合法化，通过这种做法，可以说的话和做的事变得有意义，该项目将根据妇女的经验和所发展的政府管理的批判理论，建议改进服务的提供和政策的制定。作为项目的合作伙伴，康沃尔健康观察将在研究的各个阶段发挥重要作用，包括研究设计、结果解释、建议制定和传播。
