Contre la gestation pour autrui pourrait être le sous-titre de cet ouvrage qui prend position contre une pratique sociale trop souvent justifiée au nom du désir d’enfant. Au cours du demi-siècle écoulé, de prodigieux progrès biologiques ont permis de mettre au monde des enfants qui viennent combler un désir au demeurant légitime de paternité et de maternité, mais ils ont engendré de nombreuses dérives dont celle qu’on désigne par le sigle GPA. Au nom de la primauté du droit subjectif, de puissants lobbies se font entendre pour que la France lève l’interdiction de cette pratique. Cet ouvrage révèle l’envers de l’image du couple souriant tenant son bébé dans les bras. Il expose l’histoire de la pratique et les risques de toute nature que courent les femmes contraintes par leur situation familiale et financière d’abandonner un enfant qui est pourtant le leur. Cette violence inouïe à leur égard, comme à celui des enfants, est ici explorée dans ses multiples dimensions sociale, médicale, juridique, philosophique, psychologique. Tel est le propos de cet ouvrage engagé pour le respect des femmes prises dans les filets des marchés de la maternité.

South Asia and Latin America represent two epicenters of migrant care work and the globalized reproductive market. Yet scholars and the media continue to examine them in geographical and conceptual isolation. South of the Future closes both these gaps. It investigates nannying, elder care, domestic work, and other forms of migrant labor in the Americas together with the emerging "Wild West" of biotechnology and surrogacy in the Indian subcontinent. The volume is profoundly interdisciplinary and includes both prominent and emerging scholars from a wide variety of fields, including anthropology, law, literary and cultural studies, science and technology studies, and social policy. These contributors speak to the dynamic, continually changing facets of the nexus of care and value across these two key regions of the global south. By mobilizing specific locations and techno-economics and putting them into dialogue with one another, South of the Future rematerializes the gendered, racialized bodies that are far too often rendered invisible in structural analyses of the global south, or else are confined to particular geo- and biopolitical paradigms of emerging markets. Instead, these bodies occupy the center of a global, highly financialized economy of creating and sustaining life.

"Surrogacy is not liberty. It is a crime. Women will not settle for junk liberty. We want real freedom - the substance, not just the appearance. We want real nourishment for our spirits. We want human dignity. We want it for all of us. We want it for women in Thailand and Bangladesh and Mexico as well as for the women who have not yet been born." -- Gena Corea. In this eloquent and blistering rejection of surrogacy, a range of international activists and experts in the field outline the fundamental human rights abuses that occur when surrogacy is legalised and reject neoliberal notions that the commodification of women's bodies can ever be about the 'choices' women make. Yoshie Yanagihara shows how feminist ideas have been twisted to extend men's freedom and their rights to access surrogacy. Catherine Lynch rails against surrogacy as the creation of babies for the express purpose of removal from their mothers, outlining the tragic outcomes for adopted people. Phyllis Chesler argues that commercial surrogacy is matricidal, "slicing and dicing biological motherhood" into egg donor, 'gestational' mother and adoptive mother. Melissa Farley debunks the myth of 'choice' in surrogacy, arguing that in a male-dominated and racist system, the exploitative sale of women in surrogacy, like in prostitution, is inherently harmful --rich women do not make the choice to become surrogates or prostitutes. "Harm cannot be regulated, because this would mean spreading and universalising it. - Silvia Guerini"" -- from publisher's website.
