Just as unpaid housework and caregiving have long been regarded as non-economic or "natural," the same applies today to the availability of living bodily materials and processes in reproductive and biotechnologies related to so-called egg donation or surrogacy. The third volume of the series Kitchen Politics focuses on the sphere of reproductive medicine and biotechnology as part of value creation processes and discusses these in relation to the concept of reproductive labor. The translation of a foundational text by Cooper/Waldby provides an informed introduction to the various technologies and their issues. In a new text, Cooper critically engages with the concept of labor in Marx's work and questions the implicit assumption of the male breadwinner in bourgeois law.
