This collection explores birthing in the Pacific against the background of debates about tradition and modernity. A wide-ranging introduction and conclusion, together with case studies from Papua New Guinea, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiji, and Tonga, show how simple contrasts between traditional and modern practices, technocratic and organic models of childbirth, indigenous and foreign approaches, and notions of "before" and "after" can be potent but problematic. The difficulties entailed confront public health programs concerned with practical issues of infant and maternal survival in developing countries as well as scholarly analyses of birthing in cross-cultural contexts. The introduction analyzes central concepts and themes: questions of survival, safety, and well-being; the significance of postures, practices, and sites; the role of midwives, traditional birth attendants, and nurses; and the role of men in birthing and reproduction. Contributors--four anthropologists, a historian, and a community health worker--offer insights into the ways mothers, midwives, and nurses relate the traditional and the modern, and how ideas of tradition and modernity have shaped representations of Pacific childbirth. The conclusion provides researchers with a guide to relevant literature from several disciplines. As a whole the collection warns against either a celebration of emancipation through biomedicine or a recuperative romance about women's past powers in reproduction. Contributors: Ruta Fiti-Sinclair, Margaret Jolly, Vicki Lukere, Shelley Mallett, Helen Morton, Christine Salomon.

2018 Sally and Ken Owens Award from the Western History Association Twelve companies of American missionaries were sent to the Hawaiian Islands between 1819 and 1848 with the goal of spreading American Christianity and New England values. By the 1850s American missionary families in the islands had birthed more than 250 white children, considered Hawaiian subjects by the indigenous monarchy and U.S. citizens by missionary parents. In Hawaiian by Birth Joy Schulz explores the tensions among the competing parental, cultural, and educational interests affecting these children and, in turn, the impact the children had on nineteenth-century U.S. foreign policy. These children of white missionaries would eventually alienate themselves from the Hawaiian monarchy and indigenous population by securing disproportionate economic and political power. Their childhoods—complicated by both Hawaiian and American influences—led to significant political and international ramifications once the children reached adulthood. Almost none chose to follow their parents into the missionary profession, and many rejected the Christian faith. Almost all supported the annexation of Hawai‘i despite their parents’ hope that the islands would remain independent. Whether the missionary children moved to the U.S. mainland, stayed in the islands, or traveled the world, they took with them a sense of racial privilege and cultural superiority. Schulz adds children’s voices to the historical record with this first comprehensive study of the white children born in the Hawaiian Islands between 1820 and 1850 and their path toward political revolution.

The Homeopathic Childbirth Manual: A Practical Guide for Labor, Birth, and the Immediate Postpartum Period is a reference guide written for pregnant women, homeopaths, midwives, and other birth professionals. It offers clear and easy-to-follow information on how to manage many of the physical and emotional challenges encountered during the birth process with the use of homeopathy, a gentle, yet powerful effective form of natural medicine. "Betty's book is easy to read and understand-two elements vital to learning and understanding the art of homeopathy."-Jill Cohen, midwife and associate editor for Midwifery Today magazine "This is the finest reference guide to homeopathic care for pregnancy, birth, and the newborn I have read. The philosophy of birth being a healthful process in a family's life is echoed throughout the book. Ms. Idarius continues the legacy of midwifery; to be "with women," listening with open heart and mind. This valuable resource manual gives me the guidance and confidence to broaden my use of homeopathic remedies in my midwifery practice. Thank you for such an eloquent, gentle, and thorough compendium of homeopathy for the childbearing woman and her newborn."-Laura Mann, C.N.M., F.N.P., M.S., faculty at the Frontier School of Midwifery and Family Nursing, course coordinator of Promoting Health and Wellness, Welcoming Home Nurse-Midwifery Service "Ms. Idarius has done a great service with this fine manual. The homeopathic information is beautifully presented - in a highly lucid fashion. It is clear that she is not only speaking from many years of experience with the subject, but even more valuable, that she brings to it a sensitivity arising out of a deep love of this work. Bravo!"-Ana Chavarria de Shore, P.A.-C., Homeopath/Women's Health "This book is indispensable to the homeopathic management of the birthing experience."-Greg Bedayn, R.S.Hom.(N.A.), C.C.H., editor of The American Homeopath "This book brings homeopathy to a new level by combining the skills necessary for good midwifery care with the application of homeopathy. It, therefore, provides an excellent practical foundation for those assisting the woman during childbirth."-Louis Klein, R.S.Hom.(N.A.), founding president of NASH (North American Society of Homeopaths) "The benefits of homeopathy for naturally assisting pregnancy and labor cannot be overemphasized. Much care and experience has gone into this book, the true value of which will be discovered at the bedside of the birthing woman where clear, easily accessible information is essential for good homeopathic care. Well done, Betty!"-Jo Daly, R.S.Hom., C.C.H., faculty at the Pacific Academy of Homeopathic Medicine "Whenever a client of mine had difficulties during a pregnancy, or questions about her pregnancy, labor and delivery, I referred her to Betty. Now I have Betty-in-a-book, and I can hear her loving and experienced voice safely guiding us, encouraging us, and helping us to apply the wisdom of Nature and homeopathy to The Birthday. Thank you Betty for this labor of love."-Lynn Amara, R.S.Hom.(N.A.), C.C.H., faculty at the Pacific Academy of Homeopathic Medicine
