Abstract
Transhumanism is a delicate subject that confronts ethics with the use of technological development to expand the natural capacities of human beings. What makes the implantation of a pacemaker different from that of a bionic eye? In this article Marc Abraham Puig, from the Department of Political Science and Public Law, presents a summary of his work in which he analyzes the use of medicine and biotechnology for two different purposes: need versus desire. Can legal responsibilities be demanded of those who break with human nature? Who should be made liable for the biomedical interventions in our bodies?
