Making Modern Mothers: Ethics and Family Planning in Urban Greece

In Greece, women speak of mothering as 'within the nature' of a woman. This anthropological study of reproductive politics and ethics in Athens, Greece, tracks the effects of increasing consumerism and imported biomedical family planning methods, showing how women's 'nature' is being transformed to meet crosscutting claims of the world.
