The Business of Being Made: The temporalities of reproductive technologies, in psychoanalysis and culture: Genders & Sexualities in Minds & Cultures
Editat de Katie Gentileen Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 dec 2015
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.

Recenzii
"In this unique, and insightful set of essays edited by Katie Gentile, the experience of assisted reproductive technologies, ARTS, is given a multi-disciplinary treatment that brings cultural criticism and psychoanalysis into an encounter that transforms them both. Taking account of the cultural, political, economic and psychological contexts of ARTS, The Business of Being Made refuses a simple taking-sides in debates around biomedicalization and reprofuturisum. It not only gives an in-depth view of the potentialities as well as the risks, the disappointments, the trauma for those who engage with these technologies; it does so without forgetting the implications of ARTS for sex, gender, race and class differentiations. The essays are a must read for those concerned with the affects of biotechnology on every aspect of life now and in the near future." - Patricia Ticineto Clough, Queens College and The Graduate Center, CUNY, Editor of The Affective Turn
"Technology is no longer some thing we hold in our hand or a machine that sits on a desk. It threads our minds, it bends our spines. And as this remarkable collection of essays demonstrates, technological bio-power unconsciously pulses, reproducing reproduction and the new world to come. Read and get ready." - Ken Corbett, Author of "Boyhoods: Rethinking Masculinities" and "A Murder Over A Girl"
"Drawing on the resources of both psychoanalytic and cultural theories, Katie Gentile and her co-authors spotlight the dynamic interplay between neoliberal risk management and cultural narratives of reproductive "failure" and "success." The Business of Being Madeoffers a fascinating, urgent, and – dare I say --timelyexploration of the sometimes contradictory ways assisted reproductive technologies are remaking kinship, subjectivity, and the experience of temporality itself."- Ann Pellegrini, Director, Center for the Study of Gender and Sexuality, New York University

Descriere
The Business of Being Made is the first book to critically analyze assisted reproductive technologies from a psychoanalytic perspective. It is a ground-breaking and original critical perspective on ARTs (Assisted Reproductive Technologies), using interview research, clinical case studies, psychoanalytic based ethnography, personal essay, clinical theory and cultural theory to examine these technologies. Included is current research in psychoanalysis, sociology, anthropology and philosophy and debates in critical cultural theory about affect, temporality, and bodies.
ARTs are being used more and more frequently, yet psychoanalysis has not written about them critically or with clinical experiences. With psychoanalysis as its fulcrum, The Business of Being Made integrates cultural, queer, and feminist theories to explore social constructions and personal experiences of ARTs. Katie Gentile explores how ARTs have become a complex form of playing with time, attempting to manufacture a hopeful future in the midst of growing uncertainty.
The Business of Being Made is full of original material and it 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.
