Looking at different rates of unemployment, it is unemployment. For example, in usual status unemployment rate was estimated to be 6. The problem, however, is not confined unemployment correspondingly increases. Cyclical to these time criterion based rates, a large part of the unemployment is caused by the trade or business cycles. Thus the employment challenge in India production and there is a general state of depression which consists not only of creating jobs for the unemployed and causes unemployment periods if cyclical unemployment is providing additional work to the under employed, but, to a longer and it generally affects all industries to a greater or much larger extent, of enhancing productivity income levels smaller extent.

Broadly, unemployment can be divided into a better job, being fired from a current job, or having two types: voluntary and involuntary. The unemployment generated due to the change in market conditions is called frictional Types of unemployment. Agriculture is the main occupation in India.

Here Pande notes the hypocritical nature of the Indian state as it promotes surrogacy while enforcing family-planning measures to restrict the birth rate. Pande reveals this irony of surrogacy in India, where poor women align their own reproduction to meet the needs of commercial surrogacy and brings into focus the moral, legal and global neoliberal policy ramifications around surrogacy in India. Chapters 3 to 5 present vignettes from the interviews and observations of the author.

Through these vignettes emerge the aspirations, economic desperations, expectations and dreams of the surrogates that take into account their hopes for improving their lives. One of the most interesting facets that the ethnography brings to light is the personal negotiating that takes place to justify the decision to become a surrogate.

Surrogates set aside their personal beliefs and adopt a new moral code. These everyday divinities transcend beyond formal religion and provide emotional support to the surrogates. Chapters 6 to 8 provide an analysis of surrogacy as embodied labour and show that while surrogates seek to claim power over their bodies, they are often unable to negotiate once they are bound by the surrogacy contract.

The focus of the surrogacy becomes centred around the delivery of the baby to intended parents, which means that the bodily integrity and health of the surrogates becomes secondary. Surrogates find their rights and mobility suspended during the surrogacy period and often cannot make reproductive choices e.

The concluding chapter, together with the epilogue, provides an unsettling account of the surrogacy process as the surrogates often lack control over their earnings. It shows that the money earned runs out and many of the women become repeat surrogates. The life transformations that the surrogates dreamt of are often unfulfilled once the surrogacy ends. Pande brings into focus the lack of governmental regulation on surrogacy in India, which does not recognise the rights of surrogates and creates avenues for further exploitation of vulnerable women.

However, it identifies and unfolds complex discussions that take into account how discourses on altruism, commercialisation and commodification are contributing to the reification of surrogacy in contemporary India. The nuanced analysis presented in this book has great potential for informing laws, rules, regulations and policy around transnational surrogacy.
