Abstract

Until early 2022, within the global fertility industry, Ukraine was one of the most important destinations for reproductive travel worldwide, particularly specializing in gestational surrogacy for international intended parents. Already weakened by the COVID-19 pandemic and related restrictions, the surrogacy market, and here especially surrogates and intended parents, was strongly affected by the Russian invasion in February 2022. In this article, I discuss and analyze the reproductive entanglements of surrogates, intended parents, and the children born through such transnational surrogacy arrangements in Ukraine and how this extreme crisis of war exposed and exacerbated existing vulnerabilities.

战争时期的生殖纠缠:乌克兰及其他地区的跨国妊娠代孕。

直到2022年初，在全球生育行业中，乌克兰是全球生育旅游最重要的目的地之一，特别是在为国际准父母代孕方面。由于COVID-19大流行和相关限制措施的削弱，代孕市场，特别是代孕母亲和准父母，受到2022年2月俄罗斯入侵的强烈影响。在这篇文章中，我讨论和分析了在乌克兰通过这种跨国代孕安排的代孕母亲、准父母和孩子之间的生殖纠缠，以及这场极端的战争危机如何暴露和加剧了现有的脆弱性。

期刊介绍： Medical Anthropology provides a global forum for scholarly articles on the social patterns of ill-health and disease transmission, and experiences of and knowledge about health, illness and wellbeing. These include the nature, organization and movement of peoples, technologies and treatments, and how inequalities pattern access to these. Articles published in the journal showcase the theoretical sophistication, methodological soundness and ethnographic richness of contemporary medical anthropology. Through the publication of empirical articles and editorials, we encourage our authors and readers to engage critically with the key debates of our time. Medical Anthropology invites manuscripts on a wide range of topics, reflecting the diversity and the expanding interests and concerns of researchers in the field.
