Referencia completa: Vázquez García, Francisco y Toscano López, Daniel: “Georges Canguilhem and Transhumanism: a Confrontation”, Rundschau, 119 (2021), 6, pp. 79-103 (HAMBURGO, ALEMANIA)

In this paper, which is metaphilosophical and not historiographic, it is about finding in Georges Canguilhem\’s work valid elements to elaborate a critique of transhumanist ideology. The originality of Canguilhem\’s proposal resides first of all in placing himself outside the field of bioethics, opting instead for a biological philosophy or a philosophy of medicine. Secondly, it maintains a \»technophilic\» position, which roots technique in the normative movement of life. Finally, Canguilhem defends a non-essentialist conception of life, understood as contingent variation and as an evaluative activity.
