Nuevos horizontes de economía ética en tiempo de neurociencia

2017

En el tema de los «Nuevos horizontes de economía ética en tiempo de neurociencia» se entremezclan lo que hoy se suele entender como ciencias naturales, ciencias sociales y humanidades (o ciencias humanas y ciencias del espíritu [Geisteswissenschaften], y todas ellas bajo el nuevo imperativo tecnológico (que impele incluso a considerar la ciencia en general como tecnociencia). Situados ya en este contexto de nuestro tiempo, sentimos de modo especial el predominio de lo económico, que se ha encarnado en los procesos de globalización y mundialización. Pero asimismo en nuestro horizonte histórico no es fácil sentir que vayan unidas la economía y la ética. Lo más normal es que se susciten recelo…

Edusemiotics, Existential Semiotics, and Existential Pedagogy

2016

This chapter examines how the edusemiotic understanding of education can be developed by utilizing certain notions arising from existential pedagogy and existential semiotics. The chapter begins by the authors’ interpretation of Martin Heidegger’s semiotically useful concept of unconcealment in terms of a pedagogical theory compatible with the concept of Bildung. The chapter proceeds to demonstrate how it has been implemented in philosophy of education so as to articulate an existentially discontinuous form of education. Education viewed as the most important task of/for humanity entails a fundamental disruption of continuity: we do not know what kind of humanity we want or need as a way of…

Gene therapy and editing in the treatment of hereditary blood disorders: Medical and ethical aspects

2021

Gene therapy and gene editing are revolutionising the treatment of genetic diseases, most notably haematological disorders. This paper evaluates the use of both techniques in hereditary blood disorders. Many studies have been conducted in this field, especially with gene therapy, with very promising results in diseases such as haemophilia, certain haemoglobinopathies and Fanconi anaemia. The application of these techniques in clinical practice and the foreseeable development of these approaches in the coming years suggest that it might be useful to evaluate the results achieved thus far. It is also essential to reflect on the possible bioethical concerns raised by the use of both technique…

Gestational surrogacy. Ethical aspects / Maternità surrogata. Questioni etiche

2018

Gestational surrogacy is the practice that takes place when a woman becomes pregnant with a foetus with which she is not genetically related, and the eggs used to produce it come from a donor or the contracting mother, to whom the baby will be handed over after the birth. The woman acting as surrogate may be contracted commercially and remunerated for her service, or the surrogacy may be altruistic, a circumstance that arises when, generally, a member of the family or friend selflessly volunteers. The ethical debate lies in which should prevail: the hypothetical right of the parents to have a child, the reproductive rights of the woman, or even the good of the child itself. At the heart of …

Maternal-foetal immunity: an admirable design in favour of life

2014

La modulazione della risposta immunitaria materno-fetale, volta a beneficiare la gestazione di un individuo il cui materiale genetico e estraneo a quello della madre (poiche il 50% e di origine paterna), e un processo biologico, unico, molto complesso, che coinvolge il padre, la madre e il bambino. I primi segnali emessi dal liquido seminale sono gia in grado di promuovere l’inizio di un adattamento immunitario, in cui gli antigeni espressi successivamente dal feto e la sequenza di meccanismi umorali e cellulari dei quali la madre sara responsabile nell’ultimo trimestre, formeranno un ambiente di equilibrio omeostatico, in cui i processi di tolleranza immunitaria volti a tutelare la nuova v…

Ist der Mensch sein Gehirn?

2000

Die alte anthropologische Frage nach dem Verhaltnis von Leib und Seele, die im Kontext der Ergebnisse der modernen Hirnforschung neu als Gehirn-Seele-Problem gestellt wird, hat erhebliche ethische Konsequenzen fur die Beurteilung der Hirnforschung. Ist namlich die Geist-Seele als dasjenige, was der zu schutzenden menschlichen Person zugrunde liegt, eigentlich nichts weiter als ihr Gehirn, so werden invasive Eingriffe an eben diesem Gehirn hochst problematisch. Das Dilemma dieser ethischen Frage ergibt sich aus der ungelosten anthropologischen Diskussion: Die beiden Hauptparadigmen – Monismus und Dualismus – geben diametral entgegengesetzte Antworten. Ein Losungsvorschlag aus theologischer S…

FIVET e medicina del desiderio

2013

Il trionfo della ragione strumentale e calcolatrice su quella che rivela il significato delle cose ha condotto la società odierna a diventare una “società di mercato”, dove tutto diventa un oggetto del desiderio venale e banale. Al centro della situazione descritta, si è generata una confusione tra il legittimo diritto di avere figli – nel senso del diritto alla libertà o divieto di generare – e il falso diritto di avere bambini a tutti costi, indipendentemente dagli eventuali danni causati a terzi innocenti. ---------- The triumph of instrumental and calculating reason over the reason which reveals meaning has led nowadays society to become a “market society”, where everything becomes an o…

Ulipristal acetate. A new emergency contraceptive. Ethical aspects of its use

2010

Nel 2006, Takahashi e Yamanaka hanno dimostrato, per la prima volta, che i fibroblasti di topo possono essere riprogrammati ad uno stato simile a quello di cellule staminali embrionali con l’introduzione di una combinazione di quattro fattori di trascrizione. Queste cellule sono state chiamate “cellule staminali pluripotenti indotte” o “cellule iPS”. A differenza delle cellule staminali embrionali, l’uso di cellule iPS non solleva questioni etiche. In questo articolo, si fa riferimento in particolare a: 1. esperimenti preclinici condotti fino ad oggi utilizzando cellule iPS, 2. la creazione di linee cellulari a partire da cellule iPS ottenute da cellule adulte di pazienti affetti da varie m…

La coscienza di Stamina / The consciousness of Stamina
