Assisted procreation and filiation
Medical assistance in procreation and gestation for others through the prism of law, the social sciences ad philosophy
Les États généraux de la bioéthique, lancés le 18 janvier 2018 sous l’égide du Comité consultatif national d'éthique s’achèveront en juillet 2018. L’objectif est d’aboutir à une révision des lois de bioéthique, qui pourrait être soumise au Parlement à l’automne 2018. Y sont abordées les questions soulevées par les procréations assistées : l’assistance médicale à la procréation (AMP) ou procréation médicalement assistée (PMA), et la gestation pour autrui (GPA). Les situations des Français qui recourent à l’AMP ou à la GPA à l’étranger soulèvent de nombreuses problématiques juridiques ; et mettent en évidence les effets du droit et des normes sociales sur le corps des personnes, la famille et la filiation.

Techno-Realities and Affective Creatures: the Love Simulation Devices
Modern-day embodiments of Baudelaire’s Artificial Paradises, the techno-realities are seen as a threat to human relationships in “real” life, in particular when they relate to love. Such human-shaped products however multiply: domotic spouse, tactile screen’s boyfriend, holographic companion, bride for Virtual Reality glasses, interactive downloadable partner, otomegames and bishōjogamescharacters… pending the development of Hololens friends. The explosion of these technologies (forecast to reach 181 billion euros in 2021 for VR only) generates anxiety and rejection. People engaged in Love Simulation Games have to face attacks: emotional relationships with non-existent beings are frowned upon. The tendency to get involved with a digital creature is being stigmatized, as opposed to founding a family (i.e. a reproductive unit). In spite of the stigma, a growing number of men and women, worldwide, are however using love devices: how can we explain that?
