The point in this paper is that human bodies can be read as texts where conflicts reside. The relationship between this body (the mother's) and that body (the embryo or the born child's) during pregnancy, childbirth and child-rearing is nowadays strictly supervised and this fact cannot be ignored. Medical supervising tells one what this relationship should be lived through. Two persuasive aspects are raised to support this:(1)to read this body that lacks in ability and(2) to regard that body as a subject containing risk factors while remaining in this body, being born and being brought up. J.Fiske (1993) argues two aspects of power which are imperializing and localizing. The purpose of this paper is to further explore the localizing power, which causes ‘suffering’ and ‘evil’.
