Abstract:

Liliana Acero focuses on the proliferation of new reproductive technologies (NRTs) in Latin America, pointing out that little objective research has been carried out on their impact. Acero illustrates the specific way new reproductive technologies are impacting upon women's bodies, tissues, reproductive capacities and rights. She argues that it is critical to involve local women's movement, international health NGOs in policy and action on NRTs from a southern social and gender justice perspective.Development (2006) 49, 135-140. doi:10.1057/palgrave.development.1100319
