¿AUTODETERMINACIÓN O EXPLOTACIÓN? UNA CONTRIBUCIÓN AL DEBATE FEMINISTA SOBRE LA GESTACIÓN POR SUSTITUCIÓN.

Within feminism there is no unified perspective on surrogate pregnancy (sp). Feminist disagreement generally translates into a debate between the defense of autonomy and the protection from exploitation and oppression. This formula, however, overlooks the common feminist framework of the debate, within which limiting oppression and promoting women's autonomy should be considered shared goals. I will advance the debate by analyzing these shared objectives by appealing to contemporary literature on personal autonomy. I will argue that the models of autonomy assumed by those who defend sp as a form of self-determination mask significant forms of oppression in contemporary contexts and that it is only by adopting a particular conception of autonomy that feminist proposals contrary to sp can be seen as hostile to autonomy. I conclude that reflecting and legislating on sp requires models of autonomy that are sensitive to different forms of oppression. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
