- World stem cell policies
- World cloning policies
Ecuador
- Embryonic stem cell research as well as therapeutic and reproductive cloning is banned.
- Research on human embryos (and therefore cloning) is prohibited as of June 1998.
Peru
- Embryonic stem cell research is not specifically prohibited, but therapeutic and reproductive cloning are banned.
- Fertilization of a human ovum with intent other than procreation is prohibited, as well as human cloning (General Health Law, 1997).
Uruguay
- Embryonic stem cell research and therapeutic cloning are not specifically prohibited, but reproductive cloning is.
Europe
Austria
- Embryonic stem cell research as well as therapeutic and reproductive cloning is banned.
- Reproductive medicine is acceptable only within stable heterosexual relationships for the purpose of reproduction. Embryos can be used only for implantation in the woman who has donated the
oocytes , and for no other purposes. Donation of
embryos or
gametes is prohibited (Federal Law of 1992 Regulating Medically Assisted Procreation).
Belgium
- Embryonic stem cell research and therapeutic cloning are permitted, but reproductive cloning is banned as of May 2003.
Czech republic
- Embryonic stem cell research is permitted using lines created from unused IVF eggs.
Denmark
- Embryonic stem cell research is not specifically prohibited, but therapeutic and reproductive cloning and the funding of such activities are as of 2003.
Estonia
- Embryonic stem cell research is allowed, but reproductive and therapeutic cloning are banned.
Finland
- Embryonic stem cell research and therapeutic cloning are permitted, but reproductive cloning is banned.
- The act defines embryo as a fusion of gametes, so therapeutic cloning is permitted, but reproductive cloning is prohibited (Medical Research Act of 1999).
France
- Embryonic stem cell research is allowed, but therapeutic and reproductive cloning are banned.
- Research on human embryonic stem cells is now allowed until embryos are 6-8 days old. Embryos cannot be created specifically for research -- scientists must use existing embryos from IVF. Embryonic stem cell lines are typically imported from abroad.
Georgia
- Embryonic stem cell research is not specifically prohibited, but therapeutic and reproductive cloning are.
- Human cloning through the use of genetic engineering is prohibited (1997 Law on Health Care).
Germany
- Embryonic stem cell research is permitted, but all forms of cloning (reproductive and therapeutic) are banned.
- It is Illegal to create any new stem cell lines after December 2001.
Greece
- Embryonic stem cell research is permitted, but reproductive cloning is banned.
Hungary
- Embryonic stem cell research is not specifically prohibited, but reproductive and therapeutic cloning are.
- The national law (1997) does not explicitly address or prohibit embryonic stem cell research or therapeutic cloning.
Iceland
- Embryonic stem cell research is permitted using lines created from unused IVF eggs and for development or fertility research.
- Reproductive and therapeutic cloning are prohibited (Act on Artificial Fertilisation, 1996).
Ireland
- Embryonic stem cell research as well as therapeutic and reproductive cloning is banned.
- Human cloning is prohibited because the "right to life of an unborn child is equal to that of the mother" as stated in the Constitution of Ireland.

In economics, a perfect market refers to a theoretical construct where all participants have perfect information, goods are homogenous, there are no barriers to entry or exit, and prices are determined solely by supply and demand. It's an idealized model used for analysis,

What is different between quantity demand and demand?
Quantity demanded refers to the specific amount of a good or service that consumers are willing and able to purchase at a give price and within a specific time period. Demand, on the other hand, is a broader concept that encompasses the entire relationship between price and quantity demanded
Ezea
how do you save a country economic situation when it's falling apart
what is the difference between economic growth and development
Economic growth as an increase in the production and consumption of goods and services within an economy.but
Economic development as a broader concept that encompasses not only economic growth but also social & human well being.

What do you think is more important to focus on when considering inequality ?
any question about economics?
sir...I just want to ask one question... Define the term contract curve? if you are free please help me to find this answer 🙏
Asui
it is a curve that we get after connecting the pareto optimal combinations of two consumers after their mutually beneficial trade offs
Awais
thank you so much 👍 sir

In economics, the contract curve refers to the set of points in an Edgeworth box diagram where both parties involved in a trade cannot be made better off without making one of them worse off. It represents the Pareto efficient allocations of goods between two individuals or entities, where neither p
