In this article, I explore neoliberal globalization and its paradoxical effects on the «private» space of the family through a story about three imagined but common sorts of people. The first is a Guatemalan infant, adopted by a U.S. family. The second is a Guatemalan woman who is, let’s
say, the child’s mother—and someone who left behind other children and family members to migrate to the U.S., where she works as an undocumented nanny.
