Legal Issues of Artificial Fertilization. Monograph

In 2010, Russia entered the demographic peak due to the catastrophic reduction of the able-bodied population. Mortality is growing, and the birth rate falls, not least due to the infertility of many women and men.
In recent years, the use of auxiliary reproductive technologies (ART) has been increasing more and more widespread. At the same time, the legislation in this area has many spaces. This explains the emergence of a relatively large number associated with various aspects of the application of CITs. They sometimes participate in the and failed genetic parents, surrogate mothers, state bodies, medical institutions, as well as various intermediary structures.
Having analyzed a significant judicial practice, the author provides both exemplary decisions on such specific cases and judicial acts made with a significant violation of laws and grossly violating the rights and interests of failed parents and other persons, and most importantly, children.
In the work, other urgent and requireing issues are discussed. Among them:
- Does a lonely man have the right to apply the technologies of ART?,
- "Life after death" or some legal problems of the posthumous reproduction of a person,
- the use of modern reproductive technologies and the problem of the anonymity of donors of germ cells,
- international legal problems of artificial fertilization: far from always coinciding views on various legal aspects of problems related to the use of auxiliary reproductive technologies of the European Court of Human Rights, the Constitutional and Supreme Courts of the Russian Federation, as well as lower courts of general jurisdiction.
The legislation is given as of December 1, 2019
