Summary

This chapter analyses rights in the context of reproductive technology. It begins by examining the evolving nature of reproductive rights, situating reproductive rights within broader debates over health and human rights. The chapter also explores the role of developments in assisted reproductive technology in shaping debates over rights. In analysing the evolution of rights in the context of assisted reproduction, the chapter explores: the role of ethics in regulatory debates over assisted reproduction; the issue of access to assisted reproduction; and the globalisation of health care, including health tourism, and its relevance for assisted reproduction. The analysis of each of these areas will include consideration of the role of law in defining reproductive rights.
