Synopsis
A critical examination of surrogacy as a violation of women's human rights. This book exposes the exploitative practices of the surrogacy industry and its impact on women and children worldwide.
Renate Klein dissects the short- and long-term harms inflicted on surrogate mothers, egg providers, and children born through these arrangements. She argues that surrogacy, whether altruistic or commercial, can never be ethical, and calls for resistance to this dehumanizing trade. This book is for feminists, human rights activists, and anyone concerned about reproductive justice.
- Understand the ethical implications of surrogacy.
- Examine the exploitation of women in reproductive technologies.
- Discover the forms of resistance to stop surrogacy now.
From reproductive technologies to the commodification of human life, this book challenges the prevailing narratives and offers a path towards a more just and equitable future. Join the fight to Stop Surrogacy Now.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Surrogacy is heavily promoted by the stagnating IVF industry which seeks new markets for women over 40, and gay men who believe they have a right to their own children and family foundation. Pro-surrogacy groups in rich countries such as Australia and Western Europe lobby for the shift to commercial surrogacy. Their capitalist neo-liberal argument is that a well-regulated fertility industry would avoid the exploitative practices of poor countries. Central to the project of transnational surrogacy is the ideology that legalised commercial surrogacy is a legitimate means to provide infertile couples and gay men with children who share all or part of their genes. Women, without whose bodies this project is not possible are reduced to incubators, to ovens, to suitcases. And the product child is a tradable commodity who has never consented to being a take away baby: removed from their birth mother and given to strangers aka intended parents. Still, those in favour of this practice of reproductive slavery speak of Fair Trade International Surrogacy and responsible surrogacy. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781925581034
