About the Book

Reproduction has entered a new ice age: the ability to cryopreserve reproductive cells, tissue and embryos are fundamentally changing our understanding of what it means to be a reproductive citizen. This book explores the ways in which visions of desirable reproductive futures entangle with advances in freezing technologies, with the authors situating their discussions of cryo-fertility within the Scandinavian region, asking:  • How does cryopreservation help mobilize particular understandings of reproductive time, reproductive rights and reproductive autonomy?   • What values are embedded within Scandinavian laws that seek to regulate cryo-technologies?   • How are frozen states enacted in clinical settings and how do the women and men who freeze imagine the preservation of reproductive parts?  These questions demand a collaborative approach. The authors empirically cut across the arenas of bioethics/law, practices/experiences, and culture/commerce in order to pin down often complex and far-reaching answers.

Review :
‘If cryopolitics is defined as the harnessing of low temperature to make live and not let die, then a cryopolitical analysis must account for its role transforming reproduction—human and otherwise. The Cryopolitics of Reproduction on Ice represents a landmark contribution to this project. The authors draw on recent critical theory to examine how such transformations have unfolded in Scandinavia. In doing so, they reveal how legal notions of the family shape and are shaped by this new ice age.’ 'The Cryopolitics of Reproduction on Ice offers a brilliant and empirically rich account of how the cryopreservation of reproductive material in Scandinavian countries (and beyond) is entangled with social imaginaries, moral expectations and gendered narratives. Engaging in a truly interdisciplinary dialogue that brings together feminist theory, cultural studies, medical sociology, science and technology studies, reproductive law and applied ethics, the book is an essential contribution to critically investigate current cryopolitical regimes.'
