Resumo: This text seeks to problematise the criteria that delimit a man and/or woman’s ability to take advantage of medically assisted proceation in Portugal; it also seeks to reflect on the possibility that these elements boost the (re)production of inequalities in access to reproductive health. The empirical basis of this discussion is an analysis of the legal/political and medical governance of appropriate patients, based on interviews with jurists and medical doctors. It is concluded that the main restrictions on access to these technologies are associated with a hierarchical construction of the political and social priorities that reflects the dominant ideological expectations and social relations, in particular regarding the following aspects: the privatisation and individualisation of reproductive health; the cultural imposition of heterosexuality; and the expansion in the fame of the effectiveness of techno-medicine.

Tal discusión tiene como base empírica el análisis de la gobernación jurídico-política y médica de los pacientes adecuados a partir de entrevistas a juristas y médicos. Se concluye que las principales restricciones en el acceso a estas tecnologías están asociadas a una construcción jerárquica de las prioridades políticas y sociales que refleja las cosmovisiones ideológicas dominantes, denominadas en los siguientes aspectos: privatización e individualización de la salud reproductiva; imposición cultural de la heterosexualidad; y celebración de la eficacia de la tecnomedicina.Ce texte aborde les facteurs qui déterminent la possibilité pour une femme et/ou un homme d’avoir recours aux technologies de procréation médicalement assistée au Portugal et il réfléchit au risque accru de (re)production de multiples inégalités qu’ils soulèvent dans l’accès à la santé procréatrice. Ce débat a pour base empirique l’analyse de la gouvernance juridico-politique et médicale des patients adéquats par le biais d’entretiens avec des juristes et des médecins. On en conclut que les principales restrictions dans l’accès à ces technologies sont associées à une construction hiérarchique des priorités politiques et sociales qui reflète les tendances idéologiques dominantes, en particulier dans les aspects suivants: privatisation et individualisation de la santé procréatrice; imposition culturelle de l’hétérosexualité; et médiatisation de l’efficacité de la technomédecine.Neste texto pretende-se problematizar os factores que delimitam a possibilidade de uma mulher e/ou de um homem recorrerem a tecnologias de procriação medicamente assistida em Portugal e reflectir sobre a possibilidade de esses elementos potenciarem a (re)produção de múltiplas desigualdades no acesso à saúde reprodutiva. Tal discussão tem como base empírica a análise da governação jurídico-política e médica dos pacientes adequados a partir de entrevistas a juristas e médicos. Conclui-se que as principais restrições no acesso a estas tecnologias estão associadas a uma construção hierárquica das prioridades políticas e sociais que reflecte as mundividências ideológicas dominantes, nomeadamente nos seguintes aspectos: privatização e individualização da saúde reprodutiva; imposição cultural da heterossexualidade; e celebrização da eficácia da tecnomedicina.Mundos Sociais, CIES-IUL, Instituto Universitário de Lisboa (ISCTE-IUL)2016-02-15info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://revistas.rcaap.pt/sociologiapp/article/view/7802eng2182-79070873-6529Silva, SusanaMachado, Helenainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-05-06T15:01:09Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/7802Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openairemluisa.alvim@gmail.comopendoar:71602024-05-06T15:01:09Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
