Gestational Surrogacy in India: An Ethnographic Study

This comprehensive book, written by Kalindi Vora, presents an in-depth ethnographic study on gestational surrogacy in India, delving into the complex ethical concerns surrounding transnational assisted reproductive technology (ART) practices.

The volume engages in critical discussions on reproductive rights, a topic of significant interest in feminist studies. By examining the intersection of law, policy, medical ethics, and global structural inequality, it provides a nuanced understanding of the ethical dilemmas involved in gestational surrogacy.

Exploring the Ethics of Reproductive Technologies

Vora’s work builds upon the scholarship of critical feminist, anthropological, and science studies in India, the United States, and Europe, shedding light on the intricate dynamics of reproductive technologies. The book’s ethnographic approach is informed by extensive fieldwork and archival sources, making it an invaluable resource for scholars and researchers.

Researchers and scholars in the fields of ethnography, gender, social and public policy, South Asian studies, and global public health – particularly reproductive health – will find this volume to be a rich and insightful contribution to the existing literature.
