Surrogate motherhood, also known as gestational surrogacy (GS), has been used for more than thirty years now, and in the last ten years it has grown and has become a global practice.This practice is known as Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART), in the terms of The World Health Organization.
If exact and worldwide figures cannot be accessed today due to the diversity of national legislations and to the lack of systematic data collection tools, everybody agrees surrogacy has developed and has become a global phenomenon, insofar as nowadays the people who access it usually do it through transnational services and benefits. It is thus important to explain first what this instrument consists of and why we are interested in it, especially what are its ethical, political and juridical concerns.
