Searching for donor conception
By Giulia Zanini
English
This text analyzes the experience of Italian intended parents who escape a cultural context opposing donor conception and explores the ways in which they navigate multiple occasions of donor conception locally and transnationally. The elements supporting clinical or non-clinical donor conception are presented to illustrate how the medicalization of conception transforms the clinical context into a productive milieu of kinship expertise.
