Transhumanism, Ecological subject, Technology, Society, Human natureAbstract
Transhumanism as a philosophy and technological ideology is increasingly adept and placed in academic fields as a positive, possible and desirable position. Its implementation is overlapping in a daily life that depends, as never before, on technological advances. The position we will take is that this ideology, which overstates the role of technology in society, has a limited view of the ethical, economic and social conflicts that come from its budgets. The problem is not to deny technology but what role it plays in the construction of society. Transhumanism may be selling a false dream of freedom, where uniformity, lack of criticism, discrimination and radical separation between the poor and the rich define that paradoxical world it proposesDownloads
