The sites, spaces and subjects of reproduction are distinctly
geographical. Reproductive geographies span different scales -
body, home, local, national, global - and movements across space.
This book expands our understanding of the socio-cultural and
spatial aspects of fertility, pregnancy and birth. The chapters
directly address global perspectives, the future of reproductive
politics and state-focused approaches to the politicisation of
fertility, pregnancy and birth. The book provides up-to-date
explorations on the changing landscapes of reproduction, including
the expansion of reproductive technologies, such as surrogacy and
intrauterine insemination. Contributions in this book focus on
phenomenologically-inspired accounts of women's lived experience of
pregnancy and birth, the biopolitics of birth and citizenship, the
material histories of reproductive tissues as "scientific objects"
and engagements with public health and development policy. This is
an essential resource for upper-level undergraduates and graduates
studying topics such as Sociology, Geographies of Gender, Women's
Studies and Anthropology of Health and Medicine.
