Abstract
In this paper we rehearsed dialogue between two chronologically distant contexts: Plato and the present time. The issue to confront is the difference between the sexes in terms of reproduction. Plato considered irrelevant the difference in the dialogue Republic and then became one of the centers of their legislation, in a real matter of state. Currently, the increasing use of surrogacy, which makes pregnancy in a process that can be dispensed by contracting with another woman, it demands a reflection on the political significance that we attach to this practice and thus the legislative framework in which we frame it.Downloads
