We Are the Same as We Were Born: Rituals in Modern Obstetrics and Midwifery
Original language description
Using professional literature the author tries to answer the question of the possibility of transformation of Homo sapiensin connection with modern methods of childbirth. She is also interested in rituals based around birth in Western society and tries to find out if these rituals have an objective basis in modern obstetrics and midwifery. She reached these solutions: (1) Medical interventions in childbirth in Western society are indicated without any justification. It is possible to speak about these interventions as “rituals” which we use as support for medical staff and laboring mothers and also for stabilization of the culture and socialization of a new member of society. (2) Recent research indicates one possible connection between the growth of diseases such as asthma, allergy, obesity and autism and modern methods of childbirth.
