Abstract

The chapter begins with the story of a man with a severe kidney disease who has travelled abroad to buy an organ. This is the background to discuss the consequences of the scarcity of organs. I discuss what other studies have been done and point to the benefits that ethnography has as a tool to investigate and combat organ trade.
