Описание: In 2015, a study of surrogacy and other reproductive technologies was conducted among women who served as surrogate mothers in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. There are some social taboos are associated with the concept of surrogacy, and it is not a mainstream procedure in India. To know the ground reality, thirty-three surrogates were interviewed to explore their concerns. The primary objective of this book is to explore the causes and consequences of being a surrogate, the motivation and negotiation factors, and the social, economic, and gender issues encountered during and after procreation. This book further explored the perception of various stakeholders on new draft bill was introduced to ban commercial surrogacy in order to safeguard the women from exploitation. This book argues that if the government regularizes and legalizes commercial surrogacy, it may create a win-win situation for both sides – surrogates and the commissioning couples – to avoid exploitation

Описание: This book presents a dialogue between scholars on different aspects of reproductive technologies. If we continue to work in disciplinary silos, reproductive studies is in danger of missing, and thereby reproducing, the kinds of power structures that shape reproductive life.

Описание:
The Business of Being Made is the first book to critically analyze assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) from a transdisciplinary perspective integrating psychoanalytic and cultural theories. It is a ground-breaking collection exploring ARTs through diverse methods including interview research, clinical case studies, psychoanalytic based ethnography, and memoir. Gathering clinicians and researchers who specialize in this area, this book engages current research in psychoanalysis, sociology, anthropology, philosophy and debates in feminist, queer and cultural theory about affect, temporality, and bodies.
With psychoanalysis as its fulcrum, The Business of Being Made explores the social constructions and personal experiences of ARTs. Katie Gentile frames the cultural context, exploring the ways ARTs have become a complex form of playing with time, attempting to manufacture a hopeful future in the midst of growing global uncertainty. The contributors then present a range of varied experiences related to ARTs, including:
Interviews with women and men undergoing ARTs;
A psychoanalytic memoir of male infertility;
Clinical research and work with transgender, gay and lesbian patients creating new Oedipal constellations, the experiences of LBGTQ people within the medical system and the variety of families that emerge;
Research on the experiences of egg donors (now central to the business of ARTs) and a corresponding clinical case study of successful egg donation;
The experiences of ongoing failure which is the often unacknowledged for ART procedures;
How and when people choose to stop using ARTs;
A psychoanalytic ethnography of a neonatal intensive care unit populated in part with the babies created through these technologies and their parents, haggard and in shock after years of failed attempts.
Full of original material, The Business of Being Made conveys the ambivalence of these technologies without simplifying their complicated consequences for the bodies of individuals, the family, cultures, and our planet. This book will be relevant to clinicians, medical and psychological personnel working in assisted reproductive technologies and infertility, as well as academics working in the fields of sociology, literature, queer and feminist theories and at the intersections of cultural, critical and psychoanalytic theories.

Описание: Each year, roughly a million new cases of cancer appear in the US, and more than 500,000 Americans die annually of premature death. The price that childless women pay, for their opportunity to have children through in vitro fertilization, may be their own increased risk of diseases - such as breast cancer - that are hormone dependent.

Описание: From Viagra to in vitro fertilization, new technologies are rapidly changing the global face of reproductive health. They are far from neutral: religious, cultural, social, and legal contexts condition their global transfer. The way a society interprets and adopts (or rejects) a new technology reveals a great deal about the relationship between bodies and the body politic. Reproductive health technologies are often particularly controversial because of their potential to reconfigure kinship relationships, sexual mores, gender roles, and the way life is conceptualized. This collection of original ethnographic research spans the region from Morocco and Tunisia to Israel and Iran and covers a wide range of technologies, including emergency contraception, medication abortion, gamete donation, hymenoplasty, erectile dysfunction, and gender transformation.
