Résumé
La médiatisation de la question des violences obstétricales au cours de l’année 2017 en France est marquée par l’abondance de témoignages de femmes faisant le récit de paroles humiliantes, de négligences, d’actes médicaux non consentis ou délétères subis lors de leur accouchement. S’appuyant sur des entretiens avec des victimes ayant témoigné dans des médias généralistes, cet article s’intéresse au processus de prise de parole médiatique dans le cadre d’un problème public en constitution. Il montre que celle-ci nécessite la problématisation, soutenue par des tiers, d’une expérience troublante, puis le rattachement de cette expérience à l’étiquette de « violence obstétricale ». Une fois publiés, les témoignages jouent eux-mêmes un rôle dans ce processus d’étiquetage, permettant la mise en lien de l’expérience singulière et du problème publicisé.
Media coverage of the issue of obstetric violence during 2017 in France was marked by an abundance of testimonies from women recounting humiliating words, negligence, non-consensual or deleterious medical acts undergone during childbirth. Based on interviews with victims who have testified in the mainstream media, this article focuses on the process of speaking out in the context of an emerging public problem. It shows that to be labeled as ‘obstetric violence’ the disturbing experience needs to be problematised with the help of third-party victimisers and to find ways to this label. Once published, the testimonials themselves play a role in this labeling process, linking the singular experience to the publicised problem
