ABSTRACT
Proponents of incentives have repeatedly advanced several critiques of the current altruism-based approach to organ procurement. ree of these critiques seem to be especially signi‹cant: (1) that compensating for organs is no dierent from many other permissible forms of body commodi‹cation, (2) that it is hypocritical to prohibit an activity that you would wish to engage in were you in a similar situation, and (3) that it is unethical not to do everything possible to increase donations because so many die for the lack of an adequate supply of organs.
