Camisha A. Russell argues that these technologies also bring new insight to ideas and questions surrounding race. In her view, if we think of ART as medical technology, we might be surprised by the importance that people using them put on race, especially given the scientific evidence that race lacks a genetic basis. However if we think of ART as an intervention to make babies and parents, as technologies of kinship, the importance placed on race may not be so surprising after all. Thinking about race in terms of technology brings together the common academic insight that race is a social construction with the equally important insight that race is a political tool which has been and continues to be used in different contexts for a variety of ends, including social cohesion, economic exploitation, and political mastery. As Russell explores ideas about race through their role in ART, she brings together social and political views to shift debates from what race is to what race does, how it is used, and what effects it has had in the world. 650 0 $a Medical ethics. 650 0 $a Genetics $x Moral and ethical aspects. 650 12 $a Bioethical Issues. 650 12 $a Reproductive Techniques, Assisted $x ethics. 650 22 $a Race Factors $x ethics. 650 22 $a Biomedical Technology $x ethics. 650 22 $a Surrogate Mothers. 650 22 $a Continental Population Groups. 650 7 $a Genetics $x Moral and ethical aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00940130 650 7 $a Medical ethics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01014081 650 7 $a Ethik $2 gnd 650 7 $a Rassentheorie $2 gnd 650 7 $a Reproduktionsmedizin $2 gnd 650 7 $a Rasse $2 gnd 650 7 $a Humangenetik $2 gnd 650 7 $a 44.02 philosophy and ethics of medicine. $0 (NL-LeOCL)077596218 $2 nbc 776 08 $i Online version: $a Russell, Camisha A., author. $t Assisted reproduction of race $d Bloomington : Indiana University Press, 2018 $z 9780253035912 $w (DLC) 2018041360 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200603013916.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20191002013719.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B9AD5890E4DA11E99FA2294397128E48 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
