Biotechnological control over women’s bodies is intensified by the current economic progress characterized bay an incessant mechanism of accumulation of products. PostFordist economic liberalization, in convergence with the development of biotechnology, has produced a different formulation of human life and feminine generative potential, blocked within a neoliberal economic logic of reproductive production and accumulation, in the specific case of surrogacy.

Abstract
Biotechnological control over women’s bodies is intensified by the current economic progress characterized bay an incessant mechanism of accumulation of products. PostFordist economic liberalization, in convergence with the development of biotechnology, has produced a different formulation of human life and feminine generative potential, blocked within a neoliberal economic logic of reproductive production and accumulation, in the specific case of surrogacy. Postcolonial feminist thought – and ecofeminism – highlights the problems of a capitalist economy that pervades the feminine nature as a cog of the productive mechanism. Female body with the “surrogate motherhood”, becomes the object of a form of neocolonial exploitation, of the reproductive reification and the loss of self-determination.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
