Transnational surrogacy - the creation of babies across borders -
has become big business. Globalization, reproductive technologies,
new family formations and rising infertility are combining to
produce a 'quiet revolution' in social and medical ethics and the
nature of parenthood. Whereas much of the current scholarship has
focused on the US and India, this groundbreaking anthology offers a
far wider perspective. Featuring contributions from over thirty
activists and scholars from a range of countries and disciplines,
this collection offers the first genuinely international study of
transnational surrogacy. Its innovative bottom-up approach, rooted
in feminist perspectives, gives due prominence to the voices of
those most affected by the global surrogacy chain, namely the
surrogate mothers, donors, prospective parents and the children
themselves. Through case studies ranging from Israel to Mexico, the
book outlines the forces that are driving the growth of
transnational surrogacy, as well as its implications for feminism,
human rights, motherhood and masculinity.
