Commodification of the womb information


Commodification of the womb is a Marxist concept related to the sale of functions performed by the human uterus.

The Marxist view of this market transaction views the womb, or uterus, and the woman in which it resides, as a service provider in the marketplace. In Marxist terms, the womb in its commodified state has both exchange value and use value. Market transactions involving the services of women's wombs (i.e. surrogacy) became increasingly common in the early twenty-first century. Such transactions are generally relied upon by those unable to conceive and those who are willing to pay someone else to bear pregnancy. Commodification of the womb raises several ethical and legal questions, which have expanded from questions regarding the rights of surrogates and biological parents, and the legitimacy of a child resulting from the transaction, to questions regarding transnational surrogacy within a global market. In vitro fertilization, as well as embryo and egg freezing, have added related complications to this issue.
