Unexpected Links Between Baby Markets And Intergenerational Justice, Martha M. Ertman
Unexpected Links Between Baby Markets And Intergenerational Justice, Martha M. Ertman
Faculty Scholarship
Intergenerational justice does not require increased government regulation of reproductive technologies in the United States. Arguments tarring reproductive technologies as unnatural or immoral fail to withstand close scrutiny, and moreover ignore competing moral concerns like the liberty and equality of people to form families in different ways, as well as the interests of children born via assisted reproduction in having their families recognized just as coitally conceived children’s families are recognized. Embryo markets, in contrast, might present different challenges, requiring a separate analysis of their potential impact on intergenerational justice.
