Bioethics in the Context of Law-Making and Law Enforcement (Surrogate Motherhood)

https://doi.org/10.17803/1729-5920.2019.146.1.029-039

Abstract

The article is devoted to one of the most topical issues for the Russian legal order, namely: the regulation of surrogacy. This topic, unfortunately, is not sufficiently covered in the scientific and legal literature due to its novelty and a complex nature of bioethical problems.

This article provides an overview of normative legal acts regulating surrogacy, Russian and international law enforcement practice in this area, as well as legal approaches existing in other legal orders. Particular attention is paid to the latest trends and approaches associated with the adoption of the Resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation dated May 16, 2017, “On the application of legislation by courts in cases related to the establishment of the origin of children.” At the same time, attention is paid to both public and private law aspects of the phenomenon in question.
