Epilogue -- Index. 330 $aThis book analyzes how women?s bodies became a subject and object of modern bio-power by examining the history of women?s reproductive health in Japan between the seventeenth century and the mid-twentieth century. Yuki Terazawa combines Foucauldian theory and feminist ideas with in-depth historical research. She argues that central to the rise of bio-power and the colonization of people by this power was modern scientific taxonomies that classify people into categories of gender, race, nationality, class, disability, and disease. While discussions of the roles played by the modern state are of critical importance to this project, significant attention is also paid to the increasing influences of male obstetricians and the parts that trained midwives and public health nurses played in the dissemination of modern power after the 1868 Meiji Restoration. . 410 0$aGenders and Sexualities in History,$x2730-9487 606 $aJapan$xHistory 606 $aScience$xHistory 606 $aSex 606 $aCivilization$xHistory 606 $aMedicine$xHistory 606 $aHistory of Japan 606 $aHistory of Science 606 $aGender Studies 606 $aCultural History 606 $aHistory of Medicine 615 0$aJapan$xHistory. 615 0$aScience$xHistory. 615 0$aSex. 615 0$aCivilization$xHistory. 615 0$aMedicine$xHistory. 615 14$aHistory of Japan. 615 24$aHistory of Science. 615 24$aGender Studies. 615 24$aCultural History. 615 24$aHistory of Medicine. 676 $a613.04244 700 $aTerazawa$b Yuki$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01059144 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299810903321 996 $aKnowledge, Power, and Women's Reproductive Health in Japan, 1690?1945$92504288 997 $aUNINA
