What is it about?
In Italy all forms of surrogacy are forbidden.Many private international law problems are highlighted by this paper, in the cases of foreign birth acts to recognize in Italy. Splitting the problem of the surrogacy, underlying the adoption order to recognize in this case, and narrowing the public policy exception, is highly evident the risk to suggest to same-sex couples to realize their parental projects putting in place the surrogacy within the legal systems where contemporary it is possible to carry out the adoption of the child born as a result of this procedure.
