Surrogate motherhood: a comparative law overview
Abstract
The topic of the paper is surrogate motherhood or the application of artificial conception
techniques - artificial insemination or fertilization in vitro - whereby one woman carries a child
for another with the intention that the child be handed over after birth.
Surrogacy raises both ethical and legal issues. Thus, surrogacy for convenience alone, that is
where a woman is physically capable of bearing a child but does not wish to undergo pregnancy, is
considered as ethically unacceptable. Even in compelling medical circumstances the danger of
exploitation of one human being by another appears far too outweigh the potential benefits, in
almost every case.
Among the many legal issues raised by surrogate motherhood, the paper studies two, namely:
1) the constitutional question of the right to procreate and its scope, particularly in the United
States, 2) the issue of the validity of the contract of surrogate motherhood.
