Social Inclusion, peer-reviewed journal indexed in the Social Sciences Citation Index (Web of Science; Impact Factor: 1.4) and Scopus (CiteScore: 3.5), welcomes new and exciting research papers for its upcoming issue „Contemporary Changes in Medically Assisted Reproduction: The Role of Social Inequality and Social Norms,” edited by Anne-Kristin Kuhnt, Jörg Rössel, and Heike Trappe.
Since, in 1978, the first baby conceived by in vitro fertilization was born, further technological advances, like egg freezing, pre-implantation diagnostics, and gene editing (CRISPR) have revolutionized the conditions for human fertility. This thematic issue focuses on how the social context, in particular social inequalities and social norms, shapes attitudes towards these technologies, their use, and their impact. We are interested in articles that explore how attitudes and public discourse on these technologies are shaped by prevailing gender norms and moral orientations in societies.
