Buttle's reply to my objections to buying kidneys is helpful but unconvincing in two respects. Doing something freely leaves quite open the possibility that one is thereby making a commodity of a person; and the effects of institutionalising such a practice is itself a matter for concern. And while his emphasis on 'power' is important, the concept is hardly less problematic than 'commodification'.
巴特勒对我反对购买肾脏的回应虽有帮助，但在两个方面并不令人信服。自由地做某件事并不能排除这样一种可能性，即一个人因此将另一个人商品化；而将这种做法制度化的影响本身就值得关注。虽然他对“权力”的强调很重要，但这个概念并不比“商品化”问题少。
