Abstract
Understanding of the childbearing customs of a society is enhanced by a knowledge of the social, political, economic and intellectual climate of the time. This paper presents an analysis of some significant trends in maternity care during this century and the context in which they took place. Differences between the public sector and the medical profession are specifically addressed.Keywords
