Abstract
"This issue brings together a bristling array of ideas and perspectives on the burgeoning developments in reproductive ethics. Maya Unnithan’s opening article addresses the global face of infertility and the increasing availability and use of Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ARTs) in India. Drawing on her fieldwork in Rajasthan, Unnithan’s discussion focuses squarely on a critique of the Indian government’s Draft ART Bill (ACMR, 2005; MOHFW, 2008) and shows how understandings of identity in the reproductive body as embedded in law, culture and morality might facilitate or constrain the market for reproductive services, and individual desire and agency in relation to having children"
