Midwifery in the developed world is in a state of ferment and change - a phenomenon referred to as the "new midwifery." Nowhere is this state of change more apparent than in Canada. Reconceiving Midwifery offers state-of-the-art analyses of the new midwifery as it is practiced in this country.

Midwifery associations have an important role in several subjects such as professionalisation, developing neonatal health, reducing maternal-fetal mortality, planning labor, professional recognition, planning legislative regulations, developing the profession, and offering quality birth services. The purpose of this study is to explain the contributions of well-known midwifery associations in the world, and in particular in Turkey, to the professional development of midwifery, as well as similarities of midwifery associations in Turkey with other associations, including the position of Turkey in associationalism. The associations have enabled the profession of midwifery to progress, gain autonomy, be legally protected and become more professional. In order for the associations in Turkey to operate effectively, it is recommended that their membership is increased so as to represent more midwives and thus gain more political power and to advance evidence-based applications in midwifery care.

Midwives have provided care for thousands of women who have given birth in their homes over the past 15 years in Canada. Their request for legalization of midwifery services is receiving serious consideration by the governments of Ontario and Quebec. Fewer family physicians are practicing obstetrics, and those who are express concern for the safety of their patients who choose home birth. Consumers, however, argue that planned, midwife-attended birth at home is a safe option. Perinatal mortality rates are consistently low when the statistics on planned are separated from those on unexpected home births. Midwifery services can complement the role of the family physician in providing continuity of care to the laboring woman. The Dutch domiciliary midwifery service demonstrates the possibility of this service being successful, but Canada must build a service designed for Canadian needs.
