Assisted Reproduction in Israel: Law, Religion and Culture: Brill Research Perspectives in International Law / Brill Research Perspectives in Family Law in a Global Society

Autor Avishalom Westreich
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 mar 2018
The main argument in this BRP is that assisted reproduction in Israel gives expression to and develops the right to procreate. It is a complex right, and therefore at times no consensus has been reached on the form of its actual application (as in the case of surrogacy and egg donation, and, from a different direction, in that of posthumous sperm retrieval). This right, however, despite the debates on its boundaries, is widely accepted, practiced, and even encouraged in the Israeli context, with a constructive collaboration of three main elements: the Israeli civil legal system, religious law (which in the context of the Israeli majority is Jewish law), and Israeli society and culture.
