The Politics of Motherhood : The social, legal and self-regulation of maternity Hardback

Hardback

Description

The Politics of Motherhood is a ground-breaking and comprehensive analysis of the social, cultural and legal regulations of maternity.

Bringing together debates about law, citizenship and biopolitics in an integrated and interdisciplinary manner, the author explores connections between the criminalisation of the 'abnormal' mother and the imperative (self-) regulation of the 'normal' (middle-class) mother, arguing that motherhood is central to contemporary anxieties about care, nurture and citizenship.
