Configuraciones misóginas: violencias de la representación y fabricación de la maternidad monstruosa
2018
En este texto se elabora sobre la relación que existe entre las transformaciones en las nuevas tecnologías para la reproducción asistida con la activación de nuevas prácticas misóginas en la fabricación de la maternidad monstruosa. Mi reflexión se centra en un estudio de caso: se trata de la representación en los medios de comunicación sobre el cuerpo de Nadya Suleman, una mujer norteamericana que fue el eje de la atención de un tour mediático por someterse a un tratamiento de inseminación artificial, a partir del cual concibió ocho niños en un mismo embarazo, luego de haber tenido otros seis niños concebidos también por este método. Desde entonces fue conocida como “the Octomom” y representada como una mujer monstruosa, como una freak.

Roosevelt's Lost Alliances
2011,2012
In the spring of 1945, as the Allied victory in Europe was approaching, the shape of the postwar world hinged on the personal politics and flawed personalities of Roosevelt, Churchill, and Stalin. Roosevelt's Lost Alliances captures this moment and shows how FDR crafted a winning coalition by overcoming the different habits, upbringings, sympathies, and past experiences of the three leaders. In particular, Roosevelt trained his famous charm on Stalin, lavishing respect on him, salving his insecurities, and rendering him more amenable to compromise on some matters.
THE POLITICS OF REPRODUCTION: THE TROUBLING CASE OF NADYA SULEMAN AND ASSISTED REPRODUCTIVE TECHNOLOGY
2009
On January 26, 2009, Nadya Suleman gave birth to the nation's second set of octuplets. Over the course of 30 days Ms. Suleman became the subject of outrage and outrageous representations over her choice to have in vitro fertilization since she already had six children. Embedded in Suleman's public construction and representations are subtle transcripts of race, class, and reproduction. This article examines these intersections as they relate to stratified reproduction, neoliberal reification of choice in the reproductive marketplace and the silence of mainstream reproductive rights groups in challenging the discourse surrounding Suleman. This discourse is similar to that which has historically been used to justify restricting the reproductive trajectories of women of color, poor and low‐income women.
