Description

Intercountry adoption has undergone a radical decline since 2004. Its practice had been linked to conflict, poverty, gender inequality, and human trafficking, ultimately leading to establishment of The Hague Convention on Intercountry Adoption. Since then, commercial global surrogacy practice has rapidly increased, owing to improved assisted reproductive technology, ease of access, and same-sex couples. Yet regulation remains an issue. This groundbreaking book presents a detailed history and explores human rights issues with an emphasis on the interests of the child, using the voices of surrogate mothers in the U.S and India to ground discourse of intercountry adoption and global surrogacy.
