A aprovação da resolução que demandava do governo brasileiro iniciativas que viessem a rever, no sentido descriminalizante, a legislação brasileira inseriu o tema aborto no campo das políticas públicas, mais especificamente no âmbito da saúde pública. Por outro lado, vale registrar que, no Brasil, seguindo uma tendência mundial, houve no mesmo período um acentuado crescimento e/ou explicitação de posições conservadoras quanto ao tema, por parte de diferentes grupamentos religiosos que ampliaram sua força política no Congresso Nacional. Na sociedade brasileira, apesar da legislação restritiva e criminalizante, a prática clandestina do aborto ocorre em escala que coloca em risco a vida de milhares de mulheres, sobretudo nos extratos de renda mais baixos da população, configurando-se, dessa maneira, como a quarta causa de morte materna no Brasil. Urge, portanto, aprofundar o debate entre nós com a delicadeza que o assunto merece e com a consciência da polêmica que desperta.

Humanização do parto

"Parir e nascer, definitivamente, não são processos ‘naturais’ nem meramente fisiológicos. São eventos sociais e culturais complexos, que envolvem interações entre indivíduos, grupos sociais e organizações (hospitais e maternidades), com poderes e legitimidades diferenciados". A partir desta constatação, a autora faz uma investigação sistemática sobre como disputas em torno do modelo de assistência ao parto tornam-se obstáculos para a implementação de uma política que considere mais o papel da mulher e minimize os impactos negativos de uma excessiva hospitalização do processo. Com base no caso da rede hospitalar de Belo Horizonte – pública, filantrópica, privada contratada e privada não contratada pelo SUS –, verifica em que medida as políticas nacionais de humanização do parto se operacionalizaram, como se portaram profissionais obstetras (médicos e enfermeiras) e quais foram as dificuldades institucionais enfrentadas para colocar em prática essas políticas. Fornece, assim, valiosos indicadores para todos aqueles empenhados na efetiva humanização do parto no Brasil.

The Book of Night Women

A startling, hard-edged dissection of slavery and a tour de force of both voice and storytelling By the Man Booker-winning author Marlon James, this is the powerful story of Lilith, born into slavery on a Jamaican sugar plantation at the end of the eighteenth century. Even at her birth, the Night Women – a clandestine council of fierce slaves plotting an island-wide revolt – recognize a dark force in her that they treat with both reverence and fear. But as Lilith comes of age and begins to understand her own feelings and identity, she dares to push at the edges of what is imaginable for the life of a slave woman. And as rebellions simmer and unspoken jealousies intensify, Lilith’s powers and sense of purpose threaten not just her own destiny, but the destinies of all the slave women in Jamaica.
