西班牙自世纪末以来生育率的不断下降似乎反映了人们对孩子的渴望逐渐减弱。然而，两性不平等造成的生育方面的失望使许多西班牙妇女推迟生育，并遇到与年龄有关的生育问题。对她们来说，只有通过其他妇女的生育劳动才有可能建立家庭。我们的跨国收养，卵子捐赠和代孕在西班牙的分析表明，如何匿名和利他主义发挥了这三种策略，与妇女的生殖工作和生殖提供者，中介，收件人之间的关系的估值的影响，以及由此产生的孩子。
ABSTRACT Spain’s plummeting fertility since the late twentieth century may seem to reflect a waning desire for children. Nevertheless, reproductive disappointments resulting from gender inequalities cause many Spanish women to postpone motherhood and experience age-related fertility problems. For them, creating a family often becomes possible only through the reproductive labor of other women. Our analysis of transnational adoption, egg donation, and surrogacy in Spain shows how anonymity and altruism play out in these three strategies, with implications for the valuation of women’s reproductive work and relationships among reproductive providers, intermediaries, recipients, and the resulting children.
