This is a 5 page paper discussing ethical perspectives of why people should not continue with the practice of organ trafficking. The growing need for kidney transplants worldwide has led to an increase in international criminals organizations dealing in organ trafficking. Within the European market, these organizations are “pressuring poor Eastern Europeans into selling their organs” in order to “provide food and shelter for their families”. Unfortunately, there have been reports of dire consequences for the donors whose “state of health generally deteriorates due to a lack of any kind of medical follow-up, [as well as] hard physical work and unhealthy lifestyle” and most donors are sent home after only five days. While the Council of Europe has legal principles which in part state that “the body and its parts shall not be used for financial gain” many states within Europe and other parts of the world either disregard the principle of the Council or have substantial loopholes through which the principle can be ignored. The ethical controversies involving organ selling range from utilitarian, Kantian, virtue ethics, and consequentialist perspectives to name but a few. Many of these involve the idea of freedom of the agent or action in which individuals have the right to sell their body parts if they so desire or under which people have the choice and responsibility to society as a whole to stop the sale and exploitation of the poor within society to aid the rich.
