Assisted Reproductive Technologies in the Third Phase - Global Encounters and Emerging Moral Worlds (Hardcover): Kate... Assisted Reproductive Technologies in the Third Phase - Global Encounters and Emerging Moral Worlds (Hardcover)
Kate Hampshire, Bob Simpson
R2,678 Discovery Miles 26 780 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Following the birth of the first "test-tube baby" in 1978, Assisted Reproductive Technologies became available to a small number of people in high-income countries able to afford the cost of private treatment, a period seen as the "First Phase" of ARTs. In the "Second Phase," these treatments became increasingly available to cosmopolitan global elites. Today, this picture is changing - albeit slowly and unevenly - as ARTs are becoming more widely available. While, for many, accessing infertility treatments remains a dream, these are beginning to be viewed as a standard part of reproductive healthcare and family planning. This volume highlights this "Third Phase" - the opening up of ARTs to new constituencies in terms of ethnicity, geography, education, and class.

R1,157 Discovery Miles 11 570 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The Time of Anthropology provides a series of compelling anthropological case studies that explore the different temporalities at play in the scientific discourses, governmental techniques and policy practices through which modern life is shaped. Together they constitute a novel analysis of contemporary chronopolitics. The contributions focus on state power, citizenship, and ecologies of time to reveal the scalar properties of chronopolitics as it shifts between everyday lived realities and the macro-institutional work of nation states. The collection charts important new directions for chronopolitical thinking in the future of anthropological research.

Changing Families - An Ethnographic Approach to Divorce and Separation (Hardcover): Bob Simpson Changing Families - An Ethnographic Approach to Divorce and Separation (Hardcover)
Bob Simpson
R3,900 Discovery Miles 39 000 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Recent decades have seen spectacular increases in the levels of divorce and separation across the Western world. This important development is having a radical impact on the conduct and nature of family relationships. This book offers an original investigation of these critical transformations through an ethnographic analysis of post-divorce family life in Britain and provides insightful answers to vexing questions, such as:
- What cultural values and ideologies motivate and shape concerns over relationships when marriage ends?
- Which relationships continue and why?
- What cultural values underpin the financial transactions that take place or (more commonly) fail to take place after divorce?
Drawing on extensive interviews with those most affected by divorce, the author argues that the positive sentiments traditionally associated with the notion of kinship are wholly inadequate when it comes to understanding divorce, but that kinship can provide an illuminating window through which to consider the breakdown of marital relations.
This book represents a significant contribution to current debates over the changing form and expression of relationships in Western society in the late twentieth century.
