Abstract

Using an entirely new conceptual vocabulary through which to understand men's experiences and expectations at the dawn of the twenty-first century, this path-breaking volume focuses on fatherhood around the globe, including transformations in fathering, fatherhood, and family life. It includes new work by anthropologists, sociologists, and cultural geographers, working in settings from Peru to India to Vietnam. Each chapter suggests that men are responding to globalization as fathers in creative and unprecedented ways, not only in the West, but also in numerous global locations.

Abstract

Kniha zkoumá neplodnost jako medicínsky konstruovanou podmínku a zároveň jako specifický sociální status. Cílem výzkumu bylo zjistit, jakou roli hraje neplodnost v rámci individuální biografie ve společnosti, která si rodičovství vysoce cení a zároveň se vyznačuje jednou z nejnižších porodností v Evropě. Autorku zajímalo, jak se lidé adaptují na situaci, kdy se jejich životní plány dostanou do střetu s překážkami na úrovni fyzického těla i společenských hodnot. Data byla sbírána prostřednictvím hloubkových rozhovorů, jejichž analýza je představena ve čtyřech kapitolách. Každá z nich se zabývá jednou z dimenzí zkušenosti s neplodností a její léčbou: první je věnována časovému a věkovému aspektu léčby neplodnosti, druhá kontaktu neplodných coby pacientů s lékaři a medicínou, třetí se zabývá genderovými rozdíly v reakci na neplodnost a čtvrtá způsoby, jakými se neplodné páry rozhodují o léčbě neplodnosti a budoucím rodičovství.

Abstract

As we enter the twenty-first century, a number of medical, environmental and social changes have profoundly affected human reproduction. This book discusses some of the more dramatic changes in an accessible manner, illustrating the ways in which human biology and culture can affect fertility and providing a unique interdisciplinary perspective on the subject. Topics include medical technologies that equip us with potential cures for many causes of infertility; diseases such as AIDS that have a devastating impact on the reproductive and social lives of humans, particularly in areas with limited access to medical care; increasing industrialisation and the development of fabricated materials that pollute our environment in unforeseen ways with possibly devastating effects on human health and fertility; and, finally, social revolutions that profoundly alter human relationships, such as non-marital unions between heterosexual couples, same-sex relationships, adoption and surrogacy which are becoming increasingly common.

Abstract

Each year, more and more Americans travel out of the country seeking low cost medical treatments abroad, including fertility treatments such as in vitro fertilization (IVF). As the lower middle classes of the United States have been priced out of an expensive privatized “baby business,” the Czech Republic has emerged as a central hub of fertility tourism, offering a plentitude of blonde-haired, blue-eyed egg donors at a fraction of the price.Fertility Holidays presents a critical analysis of white, working class North Americans’ motivations and experiences when traveling to Central Europe for donor egg IVF. Within this diaspora, patients become consumers, urged on by the representation of a white Europe and an empathetic health care system, which seems nonexistent at home. As the volume traces these American fertility journeys halfway around the world, it uncovers layers of contradiction embedded in global reproductive medicine. Speier reveals the extent to which reproductive travel heightens the hope ingrained in reproductive technologies, especially when the procedures are framed as “holidays.” The pitch of combining a vacation with their treatment promises couples a stress-free IVF cycle; yet, in truth, they may become tangled in fraught situations as they endure an emotionally wrought cycle of IVF in a strange place.Offering an intimate, first-hand account of North Americans’ journeys to the Czech Republic for IVF, Fertility Holidays exposes reproductive travel as a form of consumption which is motivated by complex layers of desire for white babies, a European vacation, better health care, and technological success.
