This contribution is a genealogy of the claim for reproductive justice, from its beginnings to recent developments, particularly in feminist theories and movements and regarding their ethical concerns for parenting in safe environments. Its purpose is twofold: firstly to show how its first conceptualizations, which occurred within Black Feminism, were of an ethical-political type rather than juridical, concerning not only individual sexual and reproductive choices but also bodies, communities and lands exposed to environmental pollution; secondly, to understand how reproductive justice is taking shape both as an analytical grid and an increasingly less anthropocentric ethical-political instance, to the point of becoming multispecies and transpecies reproductive justice, which intends to address the responsibilities of some human beingsin relation to global warming and sixth mass extinction.

Abstract

This contribution is a genealogy of the claim for reproductive justice, from its beginnings to recent developments, particularly in feminist theories and movements and regarding their ethical concerns for parenting in safe environments. Its purpose is twofold: firstly to show how its first conceptualizations, which occurred within Black Feminism, were of an ethical-political type rather than juridical, concerning not only individual sexual and reproductive choices but also bodies, communities and lands exposed to environmental pollution; secondly, to understand how reproductive justice is taking shape both as an analytical grid and an increasingly less anthropocentric ethical-political instance, to the point of becoming multispecies and transpecies reproductive justice, which intends to address the responsibilities of some human beingsin relation to global warming and sixth mass extinction.
