A Qualitative Study of the Impact of Police Violence on Black Birthing People
Police violence is a salient stressor for Black birthing parents, which influences their personal and parenting behaviors. Participants overwhelmingly endorsed greater accountability for policing to protect themselves and their children from police violence
Obstacles to Accepting Care
Obstetric Violence and Systemic Disparities
Why the Post- Roe Era Requires Protecting Conscientious Provision as We Protect Conscientious Refusal in Health Care
The US Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade in June 2022, and now each state's legislature will decide if and when its citizens will have legal access to abortion care and if and when its physicians will be criminalized for providing what is considered to be the standard of care by multiple health-related organizations. This extraordinary change in the medico-legal landscape requires reevaluation of health profession codes of ethics related to cli…
Perspectives of women of refugee background on healthcare needs in a major urban metropolitan community in the US
The objective of this study was to describe the healthcare needs and experiences of women of refugee background in Chicago-home to one of the largest and most diverse refugee populations in the United States. We used a phenomenological study design with a desire-centered rather than damage-centered approach to conduct a series of focus group discussions with 24 women of refugee background in their native languages in Chicago, Illinois between Dec…
Cultivating the ideal obstetrical patient
The (After)life of a Trial
The publication of A Randomized Trial of Induction Versus Expectant Management (ARRIVE), conducted in the United States in 2018, heralded a paradigm shift within the obstetrical management of term pregnancy among people who have not previously given birth. ARRIVE finds its home among other canonical - and controversial - randomized controlled trials (RCTs) within obstetrics. We argue that RCTs have their own (after)life, both creating new subject…

Introduction to the March 2018 issue on global reproductive health care ethics in the 21st century
When language skews narratives
The ISIS-led attacks on Paris, Beirut, and Baghdad in November 2015 were covered in a variety of ways by major news outlets globally. Coverage of the Paris attack was widespread, and layered with personal stories about those personally affected and analysis about the effects of terrorism on the French way of life. By comparison, little coverage was given to either the Beirut or Baghdad events, the experiences of those suffering on the ground, or …
Rethinking the social history in the era of biolegitimacy
The critiques leveled towards medical humanitarianism by the social sciences have yet to be felt in medical education. The elevation of biological suffering, at the detriment of sociopolitical contextualization, has been shown to clearly impact both acute and long-term care of individuals and communities. With many medical students spending a portion of their educational time in global learning experiences, exposure to humanitarianism and its con…
The opposite of a history
Theoretical work in critical medical anthropology and biomedicine on substance use in pregnancy has yet to develop a cohesive framework of the maternal-fetal unit (MFU) as a dynamic object. As a result, patient history, risk, and agency continue to be driven by an Enlightenment-era, monolithic conception of individual will. I use the example of Carla, a young woman actively using heroin in her pregnancy, to illustrate the limits of the MFU as it …
Sectarianism and the problem of overpopulation
The role of confessionalism in the Lebanese healthcare sector, especially since the resolution of the Lebanese civil war (1975-1990), has yet to discussed at length in reproductive health research. Using biopolitical and structural violence models to describe how community leaders in two low-income neighbourhoods in Beirut describe reproductive healthcare - specifically through judgments of perceived sect size vis-à-vis perceived use of birth con…
