Description

1. Introduction (1) The issue of assisted reproductive technology (ART) made its way on the political agenda in Switzerland and Germany in the early 1980s. Since then, both countries have adopted several pieces of legislation, first addressing questions related to in vitro fertilization and, more recently, regulating embryonic stem cell research. Both countries adopted very restrictive policies and strongly intervened into the field of (ART) (see Rothmayr and Serdult 2004, Rothmayr and Ramjoue 2004). As a result, doctors in both countries are not allowed to practice a considerable number of techniques permitted in other countries, such as preimplantation diagnosis or egg donation, and researchers are not permitted to practice therapeutic cloning or embryo research. A detailed comparison of the two countries shows that the goals, instruments and implementers differ somewhat, but that the policies in both cases operate with strong prohibitions and sanctions. Hence, we could speak of a similar policy style in both countries.
