Fertilitetskrisen handler måske mere om kultur end om biologi, fortæller antropolog Ayo Wahlberg. Den frivilligt ‘børnefri' gruppe er i vækst, og stadig flere lider af fertlitetsudmattelse. Men er selve ønsket om børn også mere kulturelt end biologisk? 24 spørgsmål til professoren er støttet af Carlsbergfondet.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Hvad betyder forskellige aspekter af frihed i den virkelige verden? Rigtig meget, fortæller økonom Christian Bjørnskov. Han forklarer, hvorfor mindre ytringsfrihed giver mere terror, hvorfor akademisk frihed er en nøgle til velstand og innovation, mens økonomisk frihed både giver mere tolerante samfund – og mere antisemitisme.

Join us for the latest episode of The Hamilton Review Podcast! In this conversation, Dr. Bob has an in depth and important discussion about demography with Ayo Wahlberg, an anthropologist at the University of Copenhagen. Dr. Bob and Dr. Wahlberg discuss why fertility rates are falling and what impact will that have on our world. They also dig into why many people are opting to have fewer children or in some cases, completely deciding not to have children at all. Friends, this is an important discussion and we hope you take away a great deal of information. Enjoy! Ayo Wahlberg Biography Ayo Wahlberg is an anthropologist at the University of Copenhagen who has carried out research at the world's largest fertility clinic in China, showing how assisted reproductive technologies were developed at a time when the country was doing everything to prevent birth through its ‘one child policy' from the 1980s through to 2015. He is the author of Good Quality – the Routinization of Sperm Banking in China (University of California Press).

Det er spild af penge og tid. Sådan lyder kritikken fra en række forskere i kølvandet på nyheden om, at forskere på Københavns Universitet skal undersøge effekten af den udskældte alternative behandlingsform homøopati. Kort sagt bygger idéen om homøopati på, at du kan behandle patienters symptomer ved at give dem en lillebitte dosis af stof, som giver raske mennesker de samme symptomer, som patienten lider af. Vi ser på, hvad homøpati er, og hvordan det er blevet legitimeret gennem tiden, når vi får besøg af Ayo Wahlberg, sundhedsantropolog på Københavns Universitet.Homøopati er ikke den eneste alternative behandlingform, der er kommet frem. I takt med at flere fik adgang til læger, opblomstrede nye former for terapi, med vand, energier og sol. Historiker Anders Bank Lodahl kommer med eksempler på alternative behandlinger, og hvorfor de opstod. For hvad kan vi egentlig lære af alternative behandlinger i dag?Gæster:Ayo Wahlberg, sundhedsantropolog på Københavns Universitet.Anders Bank Lodahl, historiker, ph.d. og museumsinspektør på Rudersdal Museum.Vært:Frederik WestergaardTilrettelægger:Agnes VesthProducer:Agnes VesthRedaktør:Toke With
Aldrig i verdenshistorien har vi på så få måneder brugt så mange penge på én enkelt sygdom. Men hvilke konsekvenser vil følge i kølvandet på den dyre kamp mod COVID-19? I andet afsnit af Fagre Nye Coronaverden taler vi med sundhedsantropolog og Foucault-ekspert Ayo Wahlberg, der giver sit bud på, hvad der motiverede Mette Frederiksen til at lukke Danmark ned i marts, samt hvilke konsekvenser det vil få, at andre sygdomme står i skyggen af COVID-19 pandemien.
From its crude and uneasy beginnings thirty years ago, Chinese sperm banking has become a routine part of China's pervasive and restrictive reproductive complex. Today, there are sperm banks in each of China's twenty-two provinces, the biggest of which screen some three thousand to four thousand potential donors each year. Given the estimated one to two million azoospermic men--those who are unable to produce their own sperm--the demand remains insatiable. China's twenty-two sperm banks cannot keep up, spurring sperm bank directors to publicly lament chronic shortages and even warn of a national ‘sperm crisis' (jingzi weiji). Ayo Wahlberg book Good Quality: The Routinization of Sperm Banking in China (U California Press, 2018) explores the issues behind the crisis, including declining sperm quality in the country due to environmental pollution, as well as a chronic national shortage of donors. In doing so, Wahlberg outlines the specific style of Chinese sperm banking that has emerged, shaped by the particular cultural, juridical, economic and social configurations that make up China's restrictive reproductive complex. Good Quality shows how this high-throughput style shapes the ways in which men experience donation and how sperm is made available to couples who can afford it.

Her areas of interest include 20th and 21st Chinese literature and visual art, medical humanities and Global South studies. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of Antropologforeningens Podcast – Anthropological Happy Hour - you will meet Ayo Wahlberg, professor in the department of anthropology at the University of Copenhagen, who presents his monograph, published in 2018, called Good Quality: The Routinization of Sperm Banking in China. Critical comments and questions are given by Laura Emdal Navne, researcher at VIVE - the Danish Center for Social Science Research, Ph.D. and Visiting Researcher at the Department of Public Health, Copenhagen University The Anthropological Happy Hour Podcasts are based on recordings from the Monographic Happy Hour events, which the Anthropological Association of Denmark cohost with the department of Anthropology at Copenhagen University. The aim of the Monographic Happy Hour events is to honor the classic, anthropological genre – the monograph. The event of this podcast was held on the 22rd of October 2018 in Ethnographic Exploratory at the University of Copenhagen.
Hvordan ser verden ud i år 2100? Ifølge FN, Verdensbanken og flere globale mega-institutioner er der i hvert fald to modsatrettede udfald, som vi skal forholde os til: 1. Jordens befolkning vil være steget fra 7,6 milliarder til ca. 11 milliarder 2. Det totale antal barn per kvinde vil være faldet fra 2,4 til 2 børn. Vi bliver altså flere mennesker, men vi får samtidigt færre børn. Det betyder i sidste ende, at der vil være en potentiel overbefolkning af kloden, samtidig med at vi har en ‘underbefolkning’ af unge. Hvordan skal man forholde sig til det? Det forsøger vi sammen med en række forskere at finde et svar på i ugens podcast. **Medvirkende**: * Flemming Konradsen, professor og leder af School of Global Health på Københavns Universitet * Ayo Wahlberg, professor på Institut for Antropologi på Københavns Universitet * Kim Moesgaard Iburg, lektor på Institut for Folkesundhed på Aarhus Universitet * Jonas Salomonsen, nyhedsredaktør på Videnskab.dk * Eskild Heinemeier, journalist på Videnskab.dk **Vært og producent**: Jais Baggestrøm Koch **Redaktion**: Jonas Salomonsen og Jais Baggestrøm Koch **Musik**: Jais Baggestrøm Koch **Links**: * [Skal vi bremse overbefolkning for at redde verden?](https://bit.ly/2JuHP5k) * [Kina vil have flere babyer, men befolkningen lystrer ikke](https://bit.ly/2MrMpyU)
Southern Medicine for Southern People: Vietnamese Medicine in the Making (Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2012) gives me hope for the future of edited volumes. Not only is it a fascinating and coherent treatment of the history and practice of Vietnamese medicine, but it's also a wonderfully interdisciplinary collection of approaches that incorporates work by social scientists, humanists, and medical practitioners. The essays collectively challenge some pervasive assumptions about “traditional” versus “scientific” modes of knowledge, inviting readers to rethink our assumptions about traditional medical practices in Vietnam while offering a set of wonderful case studies to think with. This collection is a must-read for anyone working on the humanistic or social studies of medicine, but it's also full of wonderful insights and for readers broadly interested in science studies, Asian studies, and colonial studies. I spent a very energizing hour talking with Ayo Wahlberg, one of the volume co-editors. Our conversation ranged broadly from ethnographic practice in history and anthropology, to an inspiring journey across laboratory and countryside to find a local treatment for opium withdrawal, to the ways that “our medicine” took shape in the modern history of Vietnam.
