THE POLITICS OF MORALITY: THE CHURCH, THE STATE, AND REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS IN POSTSOCIALIST POLAND
Book ID/图书代码： 09894514B74029
English Summary/英文概要： After the fall of the Communist regime and the end of martial law in 1989, Polish society experienced both a sense of relief from the tyranny of the past and an expectation of the freedom that democracy would bring. After this initial wave of
enthusiasm, however, social and political forces that had lain concealed beneath the veneer of official Communist ideology began to emerge and establish a new social orthodoxy. While Solidarity garnered most of the credit for democratization in
Poland, the Catholic Church, to which a large majority of Poles at least nominally adhered, had quietly worked to support the forces of change. As the church emerged as a political force in the Polish Sejm and Senate, it instigated a rapid erosion of women’s reproductive rights, which had been relatively well established under the former regime.
The Politics of Morality is an anthropological study of this expansion of power by the religious right and its effects on the individual rights and social mores. It explores the contradiction
of post-Communist democratization in Poland: an emerging democracy on one hand, and a declining tolerance for reproductive rights, women’s rights, and political and religious pluralism, on the other. The interrelation of gender, health,
and religion forms the backbone of this thoroughly researched study of governmental and extragovermental assertions of power through both ritual practices and legislative action, in particular with regard to women’s rights.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 共产党政权垮台后和1989年戒严法律的末期，波兰社会经历了逃离过去的暴政的如释重负和对民主会带来自由的期望。然而，在初始的热情过后，隐藏在共产主义官方意识形态下的社会和政治力量开始出现并建立一个新的社会正统观念。当团结公会因为波兰民主化获得大多数的信任后，天主教堂，其中大多数是名义上的，不声不响的支持变革的力量。当教会成为波兰众议院和参议院的政治力量后，开始大力鼓动侵蚀妇女的生育权利，而这在前政权时已经相对成熟。
《道德的政治》是对宗教权利的扩张，以及其对个人权利和社会习俗的影响的人类学研究。探讨了波兰后共产主义民主化的矛盾：一方面是一个新兴的民主，另一方面是生殖权利和妇女权利，政治和宗教多元论的下降。性别，健康和宗教之间的相互关系是这本研究的主心骨，通过仪式的实践和立法行动，特别是对妇女权利的考虑，深入研究了政治权力和额外的政府断言。(LNL)
