Description | While the significance of motherhood varies across cultures, it is connected to religion, nationality, gender, and sexuality. Reproduction is central to the perceived floroushing of any nation or culture, and thus motherhood is a major signifier of the connections between women and the state. States enact laws limiting who can bear children, initiating and supporting mass sterilization efforts, legislate access to assisted reproductive technologies, adoption, and government support for parenting. .The guiding theoretical idea in this volume is that motherhood matters in global politics. By illuminating and interrogating representations and narratives of maternity, this volume shows how practices of global politics shape and are shaped by the gendered norms and institutions that underpin motherhood. Featuring innovative and intersectional interrogations of the politics of motherhood as an institution, this collection shows that maternality is troubled, complicated, and heterogeneous in global politics. |
