EASST/4S Conference in Prague, 18-21 August 2020: Panel #70 Governing reproductive bio-economies: policy frameworks, ethics and economics
Dear colleagues, <br> <br>Apologies for cross-posting. <br> <br>We are pleased to invite you to submit a paper proposal to our Open <br>Panel at the EASST/4S Conference in Prague, 18-21 August 2020: <br> <br>*#70* *Governing reproductive bio-economies: policy frameworks, ethics <br>and economics * <br> <br>** <br> <br>Convenors: <br> <br>Nicky Hudson, De Montfort University <br> <br>Cathy Herbrand, De Montfort University <br> <br>Vincenzo Pavone, Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Cientificas/Spanish <br>National Research Council <br> <br>Reproductive bio-economies, i.e. economies that are built around <br>reproductive tissues, cells and processes, are largely consolidated <br>economies, which have seen considerable growth in terms of treatment <br>cycles, technologies, revenues, actors, and countries. Since the first <br>IVF birth, reproductive bio-economies have expanded to include a range <br>of stakeholders including: clinics, legal firms, donors and surrogates, <br>intermediaries and agencies, gamete and embryo banks, investment funds, <br>research institutions and public health care systems, in a global <br>network worth billions of Euros. Amidst this expansion, questions about <br>the policy and governance of reproductive bio-economies become a matter <br>of considerable interest. <br> <br>A consideration of regulatory systems that govern reproductive <br>technologies raises questions about how bio-economies emerge within <br>different national and supranational contexts, how and if they challenge <br>existing governance arrangements and how existing or new policy <br>frameworks contribute to their re/shaping. An exploration of the <br>regulation of reproductive bio-economies allows for improved <br>understanding of how “moral regimes directed towards reproductive <br>behaviours and practices are fully entangled with political economic <br>processes” (Morgan & Roberts 2012), and allows consideration to be given <br>to the distribution of actors and affects within different moral <br>frameworks and regulatory formations. <br> <br>This panel therefore welcomes contributions on: <br> <br>-Policy actors, configurations and policy change in the context of <br>reproductive bio-economies <br> <br>-Interactions of public policy with private medicine <br> <br>-Local/global medical regulation <br> <br>-Questions of quality and safety, conflicts of interest and informed consent <br> <br>-The regulation of different valuation practices and commercial actors <br> <br>-Questions of under or over regulation <br> <br>Submission: <br> <br>The deadline for paper submissions is 29 February 2020. <br> <br>Abstracts must be made via the online form that can be found by logging <br>in with your 4S/EASST credentials here: <br>https://convention2.allacademic.com/one/ssss/prague20/ <br> <br>After you log in, please click the link ‘Submit a New Proposal’, then <br>‘Papers for Open Panels’.
