摘要：This article addresses the considerations that guide Uruguayan national policy on reproduction and, in particular, assisted reproduction, and how religion - as dogma, but also as a belief and as a practice - enters into the debates and applications surrounding legislation. We also look at the implications of norms and practices concerning processes of bioaccumulation carried out within the framework of this bioeconomy, and their impact on gender relationships. The analysis puts into dialogue, on the one hand, findings from my field work with reproductive biotechnologies and, on the other, documents describing the Catholic Church´s position regarding these procedures. My particular focus is on the interventions of reproductive technologies for the constitution of kinship and on debates around the production of embryos in vitro.
