"There are only few projects in the region of Czech Republic analysing issues of health and illness from a critical social-science perspective. The text introduces one of them, choosing the Czech reproductive medicine as its core analytical field. The aim of this short research project presentation is to initiate international collaboration and critical debate on the issues under study, so \u2013 kind readers - do not hesitate to let us know, discuss the theme with us. Our research is supported by The Czech Science Foundation for four years (2011 \u2013 2014; GAP404/11/0621). The core areas of study are childbirth, assisted reproduction, and embryo manipulation. The core analytical tools are biopower, biopolitics and governmentality. The research team deals with current reproductive medicine in the Czech Republic and focuses on biomedicine, as a concrete manifestation of this form of normalization of modern society in the Western approach to human health and illness (Cahill 2001)." .
