| 研究実績の概要 |
During the last academic year I focused on developing the part of my project that argues that fertility patients in Japan who desire such kind of treatmentsare being pushed to seek solutions abroad. This drives, I argue, the regional (and global) demand for such arrangements.

2: おおむね順調に進展している
理由
Even under the current circumstances related to the corona virus, I managed to progress as planned with my project, producing two articles that already appear in print and having another significant chunk of what I plan to be my book written. My research has also led me to formulate a few smaller ideas which I hope to be able to develop as side projects.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
My next step will be examining in detail the passage in parliament in December 2020 of the so-called Assisted Reproduction Act. I will read Diet minutes and conduct interviews with some of the politicians who were behind this Act. From my preliminary findings it seems that even though this Act might seem like a watershed moment for Assisted Reproductive Technology in Japan as a whole, the Act was largely hollow, merely putting a stamp on practices that were already widely accepted and implemented, and without touching on the really thorny issues in assisted reproduction, such as life-selection, surrogacy and donor gametes. My efforts next will be directed toward ascertaining whether this is indeed the case and seeing what the implications are for the planned revision of the Act in question in two years time.
