description | North American reproductive travel to the Czech Republic for in vitro fertilization (IVF) is kinship tourism—since it offers possibilities for creating a family. I turn attention to the intimate labour performed by IVF brokers, Czech doctors and hosts—who create a "home" for North Americans while they are in the Czech Republic. Also, North Americans who meet one another in the Czech Republic form bonds of social kinship. It becomes apparent how tourism processes profoundly shape kinship while at the same time relatedness shapes travel. Les voyages de Nord-Américains vers la République tchèque ayant pour objectif la reproduction par fécondation in vitro (FIV) constituent du tourisme de parenté – puisqu'ils offrent des possibilités de créer une famille. Je m'intéresse au « travail intime » accompli par les courtiers en FIV, les médecins et les hôtes tchèques – qui créent une « maison » pour les Nord-Américains pendant qu'ils séjournent en République tchèque. De même, les Nord-Américains qui se rencontrent en République tchèque forment des liens de parenté sociale. L'étude révèle comment le tourisme modèle en profondeur la parenté, alors que parallèlement, les liens de parenté donnent forme au tourisme. |
