Abstract
El creciente desarrollo de la bio-tecnología y de las propuestas filosóficas
transhumanistas han cuestionado la existencia de una naturaleza humana.
Afirmar o negar una naturaleza humana es el pretexto necesario para modificar
tecnológicamente al ser humano y llevarlo a un nuevo proyecto de ser: el
bioartefactual. La presente reflexión intenta repensar la naturaleza humana
desde el planteamiento biohermenéutico propuesto por Jesús Conill en su
obra Intimidad corporal y persona humana. Para el filósofo español, la hermenéutica crítica representa una respuesta alternativa a los intentos de naturalización y
tecnologización de la vida. Dos sendas habrá que recorrer para formular la
propuesta. La primera, asumir el concepto de “naturaleza humana” desde un
ámbito interpretativo con el fin de corregir aquellas nociones tradicionales
de substancia y esencia. La segunda, postular la experiencia de intimidad
corporal como camino de comprensión de la persona humana y su valor
de dignidad. De este modo, se espera que los intentos de cribar o superar
la noción tradicional de naturaleza humana puedan verse reflejados en una
moral autónoma que capacita a la persona para juzgar las acciones propias
y ajenas, ya que, como lo han enseñado Zubiri y Laín, ser persona es un
proyecto de apropiación y entrega.
The continous development of biotechnology and of philosophical transhuman proposals have questioned the existance of human nature. To state or deny a human nature is the necessary pretext to modify technologically the human being and take it to a new Project of being: the bioartfactual. The present analysis reflects on human nature from the perspective of biohermeneutics proposed by Jesús Conill in his work. “Corporal intimacy and human person”. Fort he spanish philosopher, critical hermeneutics represent an alternative answer to the naturalization and techonlogization efforts of life. Two paths have to be walked to formulate a proposal. The first one, to take on the concept of “human nature” from a interpretive perspective, with the intention of correcting the notions of substance and essence. The second one, to advance the experience of corporal intimacy as a way to understand the human person and the value of it’s dignity. In this way, it is expected, that the efforts to winnow or outgrow the traditional notion of human nature, will be reflected in an autonomous moral that qualifies the person to judge it’s own actions and the actions of others. Just as Zubiri and Laín had taught, being a person is a Project of appropiation and self delivery.
