Inhalt: Objective: to analyze, based on Systematic Literature Review, the perception of women who underwent mastectomy due to breast cancer about their relationship with their social group. Method: it is a descriptive study, which is classified as a Systematic Literature Review, performed in 2010, in which the following steps were conducted: the protocol construction; the definition of the guiding question of the study; the search for studies; the selection of studies; the critical assessment of studies; and the synthesis of data. Ultimately, we have selected 15 papers. Results: in most of the families, due to the situation of the mastectomy, it was verified a great union among the family members and, consequently, a better confrontation of the situation. Nevertheless, it was also verified the existence of family disaggregation, withdrawal of friends, sexual partner or of the woman itself, since there are no understanding and comprehension of the problem. Conclusion: The research has revealed that the dialogue among people who are significant for the woman contributes in the treatment and in the perception about the lived experience.

Method: Qualitative survey conducted in October 2008 in a teaching hospital in southern Brazil, with five women hysterectomy. It was used as a tool to semi-structured interview.

Conclusions: Providing information to women who undergo hysterectomy may assist in understanding that this procedure does not interfere with female identity.

Inhalt: "Urbanisierungs-, Modernisierungs- und Akkulturationsprozesse sind als Ursachen von Körperbild- und Essstörungen hinlänglich bekannt. Frauen, die einem westlichen Schönheitsideal von Schlankheit ausgesetzt sind, sind hiernach eher in Gefahr, mit ihrem Körper unzufrieden zu sein. Was zu dieser Unzufriedenheit beiträgt, kann mit Bordo's Theorie des 'Empire of Images' (2003) und mit der 'Objectification Theory' von Fredrickson und Roberts (1997) gefasst werden: Beide Theorien gehen davon aus, dass weibliche Körper in westlichen Gesellschaften als passiv erachtet werden, und dass sich Frauen in der Folge bemühen, ihre Körper so zu bemessen, zu ändern und zu kontrollieren, dass er westlichen Standards von Schönheit und Attraktivität genügt. Die Homogenisierung, Normalisierung und Objektivierung von Körper(bilder)n wurde bisher weder für Immigrantinnen noch in Bezug auf Ähnlichkeiten und Unterschiede zwischen verschiedenen ethno-kulturellen Gemeinschaften untersucht. Die hier vorgestellte Studie folgte bei der Datenerhebung und -analyse einem partizipativen Forschungsansatz. Insgesamt wurden sechs Fokusgruppen, jeweils drei mit tamilischen und drei mit chinesischen Müttern von Grundschulkindern und 13 Einzelgespräche durchgeführt. In diesen wurden neu nach Kanada immigrierte Mütter gebeten, kulturelle Vorstellungen von Schönheit zwischen ihrem Herkunftsland und der kanadischen Gesellschaft zu benennen und zu vergleichen. Für die befragten tamilischen und chinesischen Mütter fanden sich hierbei Ähnlichkeiten in Bezug auf Homogenisierungs-, Normalisierungs- und Objektivierungsprozesse ihrer Körper(bilder). Die Frauen und deren Töchter internalisierten westliche Schlankheitsideale und zeigten eine gegenüber ihrem Herkunftsland erhöhte Aufmerksamkeit für den eigenen Körper." (Autorenreferat)
Inhalt: "The influence of urbanization, modernization and acculturation processes as causes for the development of body image concerns and eating disorders are documented in the literature. Women exposed to a Western idea of 'beauty' as skinny and thin may be more vulnerable to body dissatisfaction. The elements of Western society that contribute to women's body dissatisfaction are captured and described in Bordo's empire of images (2003) and Fredrickson and Roberts' objectification theories (1997). Both theories rest on the assumptions that women's bodies are seen as passive elements in Western society, and that as a result women often engage in activities that measure, modify, and control their bodies to meet Western standards of beauty and attractiveness. Homogenization, normalization, and objectification have not been studied among immigrant women, nor have similarities and differences been explored across ethno-cultural communities. Participatory methodology informed the data collection process and analysis. A series of three separate parent focus groups were held with each of the Tamil and Mainland Chinese mothers of elementary school children respectively, for a total of six focus groups and 13 participants. Through dialogue, newcomer immigrant mothers were invited to define their cultural idea of beauty and to confront it with the Canadian one. For both Chinese and Tamil mothers, the homogenization, normalization, and objectification of their bodies appeared to occur in similar ways. Immigrant women and their daughters tend to internalize the Western ideals of women's thinness; this makes them self-conscious about their own bodies." (author's abstract)

Inhalt: "Der Text untersucht neue Formen der Bevölkerungspolitiken im europäischen Raum. Am Beispiel der Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO Regional Office for Europe) zeigen die folgenden Ausführungen, dass Fortpflanzung auf der Grundlage einer biopolitischen Konzeptualisierung von Gesundheit auf neue Weise regulierbar wird. Dabei stehen drei Aspekte im Vordergrund: das Primat der Bevölkerung über Gesundheit, die Ausdifferenzierung von Risikokalkulationen und die vergeschlechtlichte Dimension der Fortpflanzungsdiskurse. Der Text arbeitet die biopolitische Figuration von Gesundheit als ein historisches Kontinuum heraus und macht die Regulierung der (weiblichen) Fortpflanzung als ein Organisationsprinzip von Nation sichtbar." (Autorenreferat)
Inhalt: "This text investigates how the World Health Organization (WHO Regional Office for Europe) introduced the 2001 UN programme on sexual and reproductive health in Europe. It appears that the WHO health programmes constitute a new regime of interventions in the area of population control: sexuality and reproduction are regulated based on a biopolitical conceptualization of health. At the same time, the analysis reveals that the biopolitical signature of health and reproduction is a historical continuum. The following text will go into three aspects of this biopolitical signature: Firstly the primacy of population over health (with the demographic focus on Europe). Secondly the differentiation of risk calculations. And thirdly the gendered discourse of reproduction, making women the central figure of governmental policies." (author's abstract)
