Taking markets-as-fields perspective (Fligstein, 1996), we discuss and examine the central role that the fertility professionals in Kazakhstan played in establishing medical conceptions of control - understandings of the fundamental guiding principles of exchange in a given field - over the ethically fraught surrogacy practice. Only gestational surrogacy is legal in Kazakhstan, and it is only available to officially married couples, whose inability to have children fits with one of the five medical diagnoses, with no other limitations based on age or their country of origin. Therefore, surrogacy is defined as medical help to those in medical need, rather than a commercial service. Moreover, to further ascertain themselves as carrying and uncorrupted professionals, Kazakh doctors restrict their responsibility to the medical side of surrogacy (testing and IVF) and distance themselves from both the commerce of surrogacy, and from entanglement in the management of relationships - and, therefore, potential conflicts - between surrogate mothers and intended parents. These tasks are usually outsourced to specialized surrogacy agencies - the middlemen that buffer medical professionals from the "messiness" of relationships and symbolic contamination by the market.
