Abstract
This short essay explores the temporality and spatiality of the suffix “bio-” relative to life and medical sciences, economy and power. It makes an attempt to envision intellectual influences that precluded these concepts, and particularly those relative to the new markets such as (human) body parts. They come to propose the concept of bioprostitution of the vulnerable, and bioproxenetism of the powerful. They last question the rationale for having split bioethics from ethics as a whole.
