| 520 | _aAt the end of the 1980s, DNA testing to verify a child’s paternity passed from the realm of fantasy to fact, bringing with it the potential of a new "profound shift" in the conceptualization of family, gender relations, and parenthood. On the basis of data drawn from multisited ethnographic research in Brazil, the author raises considerations about the financial interests behind the new industry of DNA tests, the judicial measures which regulate paternity suits, as well as widely-held notions pertaining to individual liberty and genetic destiny, in order to understand how this new form of technology is influencing questions of gender relations and family belonging in the contemporary Brazilian context. | ||
